1) IF an applicaiton needs an open port, it is opened upon *INSTALLATION*, not use!
Fine, Pan also doesn't open a port at installation time. It opens it when the application is running.
Don't confuse 'running' with 'installing'. Any application that requires an open port to function properly has either an installation script that configures the system properly, or a readme that states what must be done post installation. In both cases, the user is NOT involved, and in most business operations, is prevented from such operation by corporate policy.
