It doesn't matter how many open ports you have if your telnet daemon isn't actually using these ports.
Consider that any other daemon on your system could use these ports too. The firewall doesn't decide which program gets an open port. You have to configure the program itself to use other ports.

Could someone please settle an inter-office argument? Will your network traffic be slower through a firewall on any other port other than port 80. In other words, is port 80 faster than any other port you open on the firewall. I say no. Thanks in advance for the help! (2 Replies)

taskgated
taskgated(8) BSD System Manager's Manual taskgated(8)
NAME
taskgated -- task_for_pid access control daemon
SYNOPSIS
taskgated [-ps] [-t timeout] [-i pid]
DESCRIPTION
taskgated is a system daemon that implements a policy for the task_for_pid system service. When the kernel is asked for the task port of a
process, and preliminary access control checks pass, it invokes this daemon (via launchd) to make the decision.
OPTIONS
-p Accepts the old (Tiger) convention that a process with a primary effective group of procmod or procview is allowed to get task
ports. Without this option, this legacy mode is not supported.
-s Allow signed applications marked as "safe" to have free access to task ports, without having to pass an authorization check. Note
that such callers must be marked both allowed and safe.
-t timeout
The daemon will quit after that many seconds of inactivity. It will be relaunched by launchd as needed. A timeout of zero can be
specified to make the daemon quit after servicing each request, but a small positive timeout is better for performance.
-i pid Inject the service port of taskgated into the process with the given pid, rather than relying on launchd to install it system-wide.
This is for testing only, and requires the launchd configuration for taskgated to be removed.
AUTHORIZATION RIGHTS
system.privilege.taskport Authorization right used to check access of allowed (but not safe) callers.
INFO KEYS
SecTaskAccess A value of "allowed" is required for any program that wants access to task ports. A value of "safe" bypasses authorization
checks if so configured. Code must be signed by any system-trusted signing authority.
FILES
/etc/authorization to configure the authorization used.
/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.taskgated
startup configuration file for taskgated
SEE ALSO
security(1), launchd(8)
HISTORY
taskgated was first introduced in Mac OS 10.5 (Leopard).
Certain software updates of Mac OS 10.4 (Tiger) introduced the convention requiring membership in the procmod or procview groups to control
task port access. Before that, any process could obtain the task port of any other process with the same user-id.
