How do you force inetd to assign a priviledged port to a rpc deamon on SunOS 4.1.1? I've put a line in /etc/inetd.conf as: abcd/1 dgram rpc/udp wait root /usr/etc/rpc.abcd rpc.abcd Another line in /etc/services as: abcd 1023/udp which I don't think it cares. And finally a line in /etc/rpc as: abcd 100036 abcd If abcd is started up manually, rpcinfo -p shows that it occupies port# 1023 with program id 100036. When it's started up by inetd instead, inetd assigns port number greater than 1024 for abcd. I need it to be less than 1024, any idea?
