I'm curious about a discrepancy in RFC 1060; TCP port 178 is
assigned for NextStep, but the "UNIX" list shows NSWS on 3049
(which NeXT used in the 0.9 release). /etc/services has
NSWS on 178.
I'd like to be able to ship DNS master files around in source
form; Now that 178 is officially blessed can we agree on service
names so I can list it in WKS records?

PORT NUMBERS
Ports are used in the TCP [45,106] to name the ends of logical
connections which carry long term conversations. For the purpose of
providing services to unknown callers, a service contact port is
defined. This list specifies the port used by the server process as its
contact port. The contact port is sometimes called the "well-known
port".
