(1/1)

billy_gates:
On the OSX firewall it says next to WebSharing port 80 and port 427, what does port 427 have to do with anything let alone http?

Master of Reality:
i believe its an SSL port.

billy_gates:
ssl is that security thing right? it is for buying things online?

choasforages:
yes it is for secure connection over the internet

voidmain:
427 is not https (SSL), that's 443:

It appears to be a Novell port:

I don't know why you would have it open. Just because it is a Novell port doesn't mean other apps can't use that port so maybe there is another explanation.
