    YaST Ports/Protocols?

    What port(s) does YaST use to download updates within the online update or software manager. I have an external firewall that I need to configure. I'm thinking FTP or HTTPS to download. Can someone confirm this? My last resort is opening up the firewall completely to monitor the protocols, and that just is not an option right now.

    Thanks.
    I praise Webmin and PuTTy!

    It will depend on the repository and its format. ie some are FTP some are http etc. I think opening the FTP and HTTPS ports ought to do it.
