Hi
i need to know the required remote sites that msn messenger uses to
connect to the messenger services.

i know that i should allow ports 80, 443, 1863 to enable the msn to
connect but i need to do this rule in my Cisco pix firewall with the
destnation setting.

access-list out permit tcp any messenger eq port

destnation site must be available because i can allow port 80 and 443
to all sites and some users should not have access to the internet.
only msn is required.

can anyone please post the the destnations IPs that msn uses to
connect

Thanks and Regards,
