working behind a firewall

I’m running a server with 80 and 443 open to the world and 22 open to my subnet. A few things that might help out people in similar situations.

• run a find on git:// and replace it with http:// in BARRACUDA.sh.txt and OCTOPUS.sh.txt this allows for pulls from github over port 80 at nearly the same speed as 9418 without you having to open up another port. this breaks on dependent scripts. git.aegirproject.org (sometimes commented out) and http://git.koumbit.net/ (provision_boost module) don’t support git over :80. You could try to manually download and copy the necessary files into the locations the script is trying to copy them into, or you can fork nginx-for-drupal, clone those repos to your github account, and run a find replace for git:// to http:// after changing the urls to your github repos.

• (read dev comment) if you are using a mail relay (port 25 is closed) things seem a little inconsistent. I was able to install BARRACUDA.sh.txt fine, but couldn’t update even relayhost settings in until I changed smtp.host8.biz 25 to a mail server sub.domain.edu 25 (that’s reachable within my firewall).
