Re: [Handle-info] Opening ports 2641, 8000 in firewall for only handle.net

[Jane Euler <jeuler@cnri.reston.va.us>]

Hi:
No. There are several other ip addresses that make up the Global 
Registry and then there are several that make up the Proxy 
System(hdl.handle.net). And these will change over time. And if you 
limit by ip then anyone running a native handle client will not be able 
to resolve your handles. Both ports need to be open to all incoming and 
outgoing requests.
Please see http://www.handle.net/faq.html#4.21

Thank you.
