Firewall Ports

I know that minilogin is unsupported by dev's, but I use it and it works for internal clients. I've searched the forums for firewall and ports and port forward but can't seem to locate what I'm after. That is, a list of the ports needed by eqemu for an internet client out there to get past my home router. I can gleen the obvious ones from the ini files, but not sure what the rest would be. I wasn't sure if I should follow eq's policy of opening 40 thousand ports or not so wanted to check. Any insight or posts that I missed? Admittedly, I haven't tried it yet - sort of wanted to get the ports in place first so I'm not just guessing.

Thanks for any help.

you need to forward whatever ports you are using for zones and world needs port 9000, thats it

Oh - duh - zone ports. Those are given to me too. lol

Thanks mattmeck, guess I made that situation more difficult than it was =b

Oh, one more thing since I'm a linksys 'tard - I'm assuming it's TCP only on everything except the zones which need TCP and UDP? Is that right?
