Comment:
Not sure what being free, or beer, has to do with anything, but
port 902 probably shouldn't be used by Samba (SWAT), or VMWare
as it is already spoken for in the IANA database.
So, since the SWAT docs say to use 901 (but it also says which
port doesn't matter as long as it is < 1024), and it is spoken
for, I suggest we move the tunneled SWAT to 904/905 as these
ports are not currently used, or reserved.
However, do note that because VMWare is using a port they
probably shouldn't be is not why this is changing. I suggest
it be documented as being changed because "to use ports not
currently reserved in the IANA database".
