That's right, but what do we gain if we change the port back to 1043? Third party tools (like KBoincSpy) rely on the fact that a specific BOINC version uses a specific port number. We would have to change all BOINC tools in Debian and we would have to teach our users that we are deviating from upstream with no good reasons. Grüße, Frank -- Es irrt der Mensch, solang' er strebt.
