Great, thanks. Anybody knows why the default is to use unpriviledged ports ?

And also how to specify it in the amd config files.
I tried:

	~-0> head -3 /etc/amd/home
	/defaults       opts:=rw,hard,-P,intr,noquota;type:=nfs;cache:=none
	columbus        host==liasun1;type:=link;fs:=/export/columbus host!=liasun1;rhost:=liasun1;rfs:=/export/columbus
	robinson        host==liasun1;type:=link;fs:=/export/robinson host!=liasun1;rhost:=liasun1;rfs:=/export/robinson
	~-0> 

but it doesn't seem to work.
