All,

a question on how we currently handle ports; I'm re-reading the email 
thread "server- & port ranges: how to handle some corner cases" (internal 
only at the time, sorry), where I wrote, among other things:

> if (port1 == 0) watch for all ports on a given address (range) 

and I can't recall any objection to this (but may have missed something, 
you never know ;-).

in the kernel, in ilb_server_add, I see "if min_port == 0, return EINVAL". 
Since I never saw any discussion about what I quote above, I'm a little 
surprised .

Also, if we let "if min_port == 0, return EINVAL" stand, how are we 
supposed to express "match all ports"?

thx
Michael
