RE: Re: xAP over ethernet - here's how to write an input plugin.



True but theres only 65k ports available for use of which 1024 are root
owned under unix leaving only 64k.  I think it will always be hard to choose
a port not in use by another piece of software etc.  I guess it all depends
on the scope of the project.  unlike http on port 80 we probably dont need
the port free on every machine on the internet ;-)

k.

p/s as an aside the question of ownership of a port is a tough one to
answer, does prior claim have any hold here?

Dunno, guess so, but it does seem perverse to deliberately use a port
that "belongs" to someone else!
