TCP/UDP ports used for Index server OpenQuery

If I am doing an Index Server query from SQL, such as:
SELECT
Q.*
FROM
OPENQUERY(FTInd exPM, ''SELECT path, characterizatio n, rank, hitcount
FROM SCOPE('DEEP TRAVERSAL OF .....

can anyone tell me which TCP/UDP ports will be used between the SQL
Server and the Index server if the Index Server is on another machine?
I'm doing the query from SQL so that I can join the results with a
table in the database and am not interested in doing the Index query
from the app server. I haven't been able to find any info on the net
for which firewall ports are used for this.

This actually isn't relevant - The below problem was with the Index
server on one machine crawling the files on another. What I am trying
to achieve is a connection to a remote index server, which is on the
same machine as the files. So I shouldn't need the standard UNC/File
share ports, but rather something to do with OLEDB.

You would need to set up the linked server as you would set your
connection string in a client program that connected directly to
Index Server.

No, I don't know how to that, since I hardly know what Index Server is.
But the point here is that if you don't know how to connect to Index
Server, you should try to find a forum for this product, where people
might know.

The first example I gave is exactly how you connect to index server,
and it works fine. My questions is omply that once there is a firewall
inbetween the two, what will the ports needed be..

That would be the ports on the Index Server box. SQL Server is only
connecting out. Index Server does not connect back. (And if it does it
connects to the OLE DB Provider.)

Hi, I have an Oracle (8.1) & a SQL Server 2000 database with Production data. There are situations when I need data from both the databases. My first choice was to link Oracle to SQL and run DTS overnight. But this would have a 1 day latency not to mention the time it would take. 1. Has any one tried real time access via Linked server to Oracle? How good is the performance?
