For those that keep the nsrports -S values as tight as possible, what are you finding is a reliable number of ports so the nsrexecd daemon will start on client systems?

Prior to 7.5, I've found that I only needed 4 ports. But with 7.5 and 7.5.1 I'm finding that while the foolish thing only uses 4 ports, that it needs to have more than that defined to able to reliably start. At 6, it will usually, but not always start...

Before I open an issue with EMC and ask them why they need more than 4 ports and fail with the message in daemon.raw that they couldn't bind to a port because it was already in use to start when after nsrexecd is running, lsof tells me that they are only using 4 ports ... I thought I'd ping here.

Thanks,
