[PLUG] Blocked outgoing ports


OK we talked about incoming ports, which you basically shutdown except for
those used but what about outgoing? In a mixed Linux, MS, and other device
world what is the recommendation? I currently have 135-139 and 445 blocked
but that is only because I see traffic hits coming in on those ports (but
blocked in) and they are obviously MS stuff. I guess this is a hard
generalized question because we all have different stuff we use to the
outside world. There are however, I am sure, some bad ones that you can
eliminate.
