I'm running a port scan right now. So far, http and rsync are the only

sure if that represents the source port or a port I'm supposed to use
because I don't have the layout of the torrent file. But I do see this
in the torrent file:

    d8:announce39:http://torrent.centos.org:6969/announce13: ...

your torrent client can use any port it wants to, it has to be able to accept connections on that port, so whatever port you configure it for, you enable in your firewall, (or port forward if you have a consumer internet sharing appliance router)


the port in the torrent file is the tracker port, this is seperate.
