About the implementation of this feature... shouldn't the function in_pcbbind() in netinet/in_pcb.c be modified instead? This will eliminate having to check whether the protocol in question is IP. Also, it seems like an ideal place for this patch since this is where the priviledge check is made for binding ports <1024. I've included a similar patch which should accomplish the same thing. A caveat though: I did not test this, nor did I even try to compile it. I just created it to serve as a guide. It should be easy to whip it into shape, if needs be... -- Allan Saddi "The Earth is the cradle of mankind, asaddi@philosophysw.com but we cannot live in the cradle http://www.philosophysw.com/asaddi/ forever." - K.E.
