yes, open one or more ports. ctorrent requires a port for each
concurrent torrent instance, while other torrent apps like Azureus can
share one port for multiple torrents. Forward this port through your
firewall/router to the torrent client. Configure said client to use
said port. ctorrent takes a -p option to specify the port.
