[olug] Ports to block (for Nate)

[Jay Swackhamer]

To check to see what ports that you have active(services running on)
do  a

# nmap IPADDRESS

If you dont want incoming connections on those services, then shut them
down or block them.......

> should allow outgoing connections on these ports so you can connect to
> http (port 80), ssh (22), smtp (25), etc.
