I would agree. We could add back the port 10000 default, but the current behaviour feels better since if the user picks a port that isn't available or is already in use, it can let them know. Automatically falling back to a hard-coded port was always a little "iffy". -- Shawn Walker _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
