Can I ask why the detailed results of the SFTs are hosted on port 9443? Is
there any reason they can't be served on a standard https port (443 or
8443)? All our external web access goes through a web proxy which
(unsurprisingly) doesn't allow port 9443. I don't particularly want to ask
for special access on this port as I don't see the need. We have other
more worthwhile battles to fight on this front and I don't want to use up
my credit with the firewall admins!
As I've said before, it's hard enough convincing site admins that we
really need all of the Grid ports open; we shouldn't also need to ask them
to open up non-standard ports for straightforward web accesses.
