"TCP Ping dest ports" field

[ONeill Jack]

Hello,

This may be more about nmap, but nevermind :
-- I need advices for
Prefs > "TCP ping dest port(s)" 

-- Does this choice depend on the tested host ?
-- Is this parameter the same for all the scanned
hosts ?
-- Why is it 80 or 22,80,443 by default ?

I found this mail in the archives : 
is it a good list ?
<< (...)
Here is the list of TCP ports I use for syn sweeps:
21, 22, 23, 25, 53, 80, 110, 143, 264, 389, 443, 1454,
1723, 3389, 993

(though not nessecarily in that order)
These ports are ones found open most often on heavily
firewalled systems, they are based on a few years of
external scanning and have proven to catch 90% of the
systems out there

Thanks for replies
