[R] SAM program and R mirror - which port to open?

[Katie Ashton]

To whom this may concern,

I am having issues installing a program called "SAM" (Statistical Analysis of Microarrays) which is an excel add in and requires the use of R. Due to the firewall at my hospital, R cannot connect to a mirror and therefore cannot install necessary files for the complete installation of SAM. The IT department has asked me which "port" needs to be opened so I can connect to a mirror.

Thank you for your help,

Cheers,
Katie
