Open a port

Please excuse my newbie question, but can someone please tell me how to open port 3306 on a Cisco Pix 501 firewall using Device Manager 3.0?

it depends really...

are you opening it to a device on the inside that has a static NAT entry? are you overloading (w/ PAT) that outside interface?

I don't use PDM but here's the CLI version:

access-list outside_acl permit tcp/udp any host inside_host eq 3306

access-group outside_acl in interface outside

depending on your NAT configuration, this might vary a little.

I appreciate your response, but it's all a foreign language to me.

I think you should start here...
