Remote Scripting and Firewall Ports

Which udp and tcp ports do I need to open?Scott (Scott@.discussions.microsoft.com) writes:

Would scripting being any different from running queries?
If SQL Server listens on port 1433, that is your guy.
How remote are these connections? From the Internet? Or just in the
local network? If you expose the server on the Internet, make sure
that you have a really strong password for sa and all other SQL logins for
that matter. And make absolutely sure that you are running at least SP3.
