Hi David,

Sorry for the late reply.
I changed the struct sockaddr_in struct member sin_port to 32000 and set DEFAULT_USER to root. I said it was a hack and your method with sysctl is definitely the way to go.
I just wanted it to work, and since I have no security worries here, it's just what I need.
