Jens Deppe commented on GEODE-1243:
-----------------------------------
Regarding docs, BruceS had the following comment as part of the review:

I think you need to document this for users so that no-one comes across it and,
for whatever reason, uses it in a non-test environment. Just include in the
documentation that it can't be used with auto-reconnect. The locator may
reconnect but it will have a different port.
{quote}
The purpose of this bit of functionality is to ease writing tests. It is not
intended to be used under 'normal' conditions.
> Geode should support specifying port zero as wild card for all ServerSockets

> Completing this is necessary for fixing Flaky tests that are caused by use of
> random ports which results in BindException. Sometimes the BindException
> occurs in a background thread or in JVM being forked.
> Adding support for Locator port of zero, requires changes to InternalLocator
> TcpServer. I'm going to commit two comments in these classes that specifies
> where the change is needed.
