This is not exactly true. MS Exchange doesn't care what ports it uses, it just starts off at 1024 and keeps stealing ports upwards. If you want to be sure of not getting caught in the Exchange trap, use a port in the range 50000-65535. > So, I opened tcp port 1250 on both > the nagios server and the windows xp host.
