Are you referring to?

a) ANSI/Telnet
b) WcNav
c) HTTP

If you are referring to HTTP wcWeb then to the best of my recollection the
only ports in play are:

  HTTP
  HTTPS
  Telnet (Java)

You can confirm the above by downloading SysInternals

   http://technet.microsoft.com/en-US/sysinternals

and launching TCPVIEW.EXE

Most issues on the HTTP side having nothing to do with ports and come down
to issues with local Java Runtime installs and/or browser specific plugins.

I would make sure you have the latest version of Java and test with at
least IE and Chome as Firefox can sometimes be problematic. Watch for any
browser plugin failure or warning popups.
