Package: netbase Version: 4.44 Bug # 442304 changed the service name of port 8080 to http-alt as per IANA. The problem is that "http-alt" is not unique on IANA's list as it is shared with 8008 and 591: http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers
Wikipedia has different name assignments: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_TCP_and_UDP_port_numbers I recommend the following changes and additions: http-alt 8008 # Alternate HTTP http_alt 8080 webcache # WWW Caching service http_alt_alt 8090 # Alternate HTTP These being all unofficial there isn't any hard rule for their names/assignments and there are plenty of exceptions. There are a lot of firewall "help" sites that list the ones I'm recommending but I'm unsure if they are using different sources or just using Wikipedia's list. Deciding a popularity contest with Google isn't ideal but I'm more concerned with uniqueness in the service names versus popular usage. 8090 is used by Tsung/IDX-Tsunami but it's not in Debian http://tsung.erlang-projects.org/user_manual.html#htoc22 VLC uses 8080 for streaming over http. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
