im trying to set up my firewall in OS X for second life. for the UDP and TCP ports, what ports do i need to open, and in what 'format' do i enter them to have everything functioning correctly?

i.e. - ####, ####, #### or #### - #####, etc?

also, real quick. under the firewall tab, once i click on advanced i have 3 choices, the 2 i'm more interested in is "Block UDP Traffic" and "Enable Stealth Mode".

if i have those two options checked along with my configuration for SL with my firewall, will this affect SL or my speed any?
