URGENT: Firewall - plz help?

Hi all,

I am behind a firewall - can someone tell me what & how can I make use of a proxy setting? The admins ask me to provide a port that they need to open for me. Is that the standard http port? or something else?

 

Plz help ...

 

Regards,

You don't need to open any ports to use the sforce Web service - all requests are outbound, and none are in bound.

Here is an article I found on using Java to create HTTP connections through proxies - a quick google search should provide more detail.
