Listen DSRPC in a different port number (DS752)

[harikris]

I want to know if it is possible to start-up DSRPC process in a different port number other than 31538.

I tried changing the port in the /etc/services file to another port number, i am able to

- connect to uv repository from UNIX prompt
- find the dsrpc process running
- find the port 'LISTEN' when i do a 'netstat -a'

but unable to connect from DS client, it throws an error (81016).

Please let me know your expert comment.


Thanks,
Hari

It is certainly possible; you have proven that by succeeding in starting the RPC daemon.

When you attempt to connect, do you specify the new port number as part of the address? For example, hostname:31568 or xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:31568 ?
