How would your sailorly daughter feel if she knew how you felt about open ports?
Believe me, few things sound better to a sailor's ears than "open port"..

>From the Windows 2003 Help File:
 
"To use Remote Assistance through a firewall
Remote Assistance uses the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) to establish a
connection between a user requesting help and an assistant providing it.
The RDP uses TCP port 3389 for this connection. To allow users within an
organization to request help outside your organization using Remote
Assistance, port 3389 must be open at the firewall. To prohibit users
from requesting help outside the organization, this port should be
closed at the firewall."

...where is that dreaded Open Port[Patent Pending] button?...
