Does anyone know where I can find a complete list of port numbers and which ones are the 'backdoors' for a network? I'm setting up a VPN server at home and I want to only use ports I'll need to.

You should check out Microsoft's Security Operations Guide for Windows 2000 Server.

Also, the SANS institute has a very good Step by Step guide for securing Windows 2000. You can find it here:

It isn't free but you can order a hard copy for $49.00. I think you will find it money well spent.
