You can't "designate a port" like this. Typically, you specify one of the uucp programs for the shell for UUCP dialin accounts. There isn't accounting control to prevent people from logging in on particular port ranges... specifically, you're screwed if it's a terminal server or something like that, where the line-to-port assignment varies in the connection from the server to the host machine. Other than that, there's secrecy: don't give out the UUCP phone number. Terry Lambert terry@lambert.org --- Any opinions in this posting are my own and not those of my present or previous employers.
