Thanks, I know how netfilter and iptables work. I do not need to use them to solve this problem. In the future, I may enable netfilter and iptables (for other reasons). Currently it is not enabled/installed. If I do end up needing netfilter, I probably won't use iptables. I'll probably compile the rules into a kernel module to save on overhead and filesystem space. > If not any troll with access to anything can use any port over 1024 Not relevent. No trolls have access to anything. If trolls gain access to the system, the conflict between servers and ephemerals ports is by far the least of my worries. -- Grant
