Dunno about anyone else but I use a PC that looks for openable ports. So
long as the RTT is in the 20-30 ms range (very local) checking all 65536
is not too bad (less than an hour). Usually I just check the "popular"
ports but for sensitive areas it's worth the coffee break every now and
again.
Warmly,
