I'm not explicitly blocking any ports, just addresses (I've not defined it
that tight yet, there's not much to protect, and I'm learning as I go).
Which address(es)/port(s) do(es) DHCP use?  I greped through my
/etc/services file and didn't find anything, and I'm not sure where to look
other and the RFC, and I'm not really keen on reading it (It's too full of
crap for my taste, I'd like the boiled down version).

Any help?

Thanks,

Brooks
