Hi John, I've seen this in my UV-Inbox for some time and was waiting for some response. Since none has come, I'll offer the following:
1, the port is hard coded in the client. Changing a port# on a server is pretty easy for any service. It's not recommended and with some it will take a recompile, but it's pretty straightforward. Changing the port requested by a client is completely different and can only be controlled by the developer, either at runtime, which would allow change, or during compilation, which makes it virtually impossible to change. One other item is that the UVADMIN client allows multiple hosts, all using the same UVRPC port without having to worry about conflicts. This is done the same way a 'telnet' or 'ssh' or any other remote connection process is controlled. You have to know the IP address. So, if what you are after is being able to 'poke a hole' in a firewall to enable managing the servers from remote locations, I would recommend not worrying about the server or client port number used, but rather, creating a VPN tunnel (PPTP) through which to communicate to the various U2 servers.
