You can add the following line to /etc/sysctl.conf if your distro supports

net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 1024 32768

and do "sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.conf"

Else, you can execute the following command as root and also put
somewhere in startup scripts preferably /etc/rc.d/rc.local

sysctl -w "net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range=1024 32768"
