sure it is... it's even more open than the default... see below
according to peter, which sounds about right...

these services/ports are open...

At that IP address, I find the following:

An accessible SMTP server
An accessible name server
An accessible POP3 server
An accessible IMAP server

22/tcp open ssh
311/tcp open asip-webadmin
427/tcp open svrloc
548/tcp open afpovertcp
625/tcp open unknown
1720/tcp filtered H.323/Q.931
1723/tcp open pptp

And it will run unfazed, no matter what anyone does... that's a Fact.

It's the joy of running OSX Server! (or client for many of the same
tasks for that matter)
