Ok I will remove it from my build.  Thanks, this is why I join ML's, to get the real dirt.  :)

I initially enabled it as I thought it would help make firewalling torque easier forcing only TCP traffic.  My clients are in a different zone than my head/compute node, but I think I'll still only need to firewall TCP 15001-4 from clients to head node.  Does Torque use UDP at all?

Thanks!
