this limit has been hardcoded in the sunrpc layer since the birth of time. it starts at 800 and counts down to 0 until it find an unused port. requring a privileged port gets you the default level of security NFSv3 provides... anybody know why rpc doesn't use the full port 0-1023 range? -- Stew Smith _______________________________________________ autofs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/autofs
