[chef] Re: Ports used....

[Noah Kantrowitz < >]

Only 443 is used for Chef, though the server listens on 80 by default as a 
convenience redirect. Everything is done via a REST API, so its all over a 
single port. More stuff is used internally, but those all only listen on 
localhost unless you are building a multi-server cluster for your Chef server.
