The portmapper and rpcbind do not assign ports; they *register* port assignments. An application which wants to use a specific port will need to bind to that port specifically, like NFS and lockd do. Which particular application do you have in mind? (I am assuming you want to run a specific service on a specific port so you can have a fixed firewall rule) Casper _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
