TCP Port question for MGE

[damunzy]

I am behind a firewall and I am wondering what TCP ports Civ2 uses for multiplayer? If anyone could tell me, or point me in the direction of a web site that has that information I would appreciate it.
Thanks

I figured it out!
Civ2 MGE uses TCP port 4993 to go out on when you host. So those of you will firewalls that will let you selectively forward ports, set your router up to forward port 4993 and you should be able to host Civ2 MGE.
I have a Linksys Etherfast Cable/DSL Router Model # BEFSR41. I had to go into the configuration under Advanced Tab->Forwarding.
Thanks goes to vladmir_illych_lenin and Milamber for joining disconnecting and rejoining many times over. Thanks guys.
