Jason:

        Heya. I hadn't seen a reply to your post yet, probably
because your question was a bit scary. :) Asking how to open
40,000 UDP ports on a LEAF list would be like asking "how can
I be sure to poison myself?" on a medical self-help list. :)
        Anyhow. Presuming you meant to open only 256 ports,
starting at port 40000, it's easily done with just two commands.
First, you need to open the ports on the external side of the
firewall:

ipchains -A input -s 0.0.0.0/0 -d $IP_EXT/32 40000:40256 -p udp -j ACCEPT

        Secondly, I presume you want to pass the data arriving
at those ports along to an internal, MASQ'd server. Do that with:

ipmasqadm autofw -A -r udp 40000 40256 -h $MASQD_HOST

        This range is similar to that used by TeamSound (a voice
conferencing service targeted at game players) though it needs TCP
port 40000 treated similarly.
        Hope this helps!

cheers,
Scott
