difference between --with-portrange and --with-tcpportrange ?
2005-06-21 16:20:34
I've been banging my head against a wall trying to figure out why I
couldn't backup a few clients even though all the checks seemed to run
OK. Sure enough, turned out to be a firewall/iptables issue ... my
amanda server was allowed in on ports 10080, 10082, 10083 but NOT on any
other ports so once the client ran the estimate and started listening on
random tcp ports, the amanda server could never connect to it.
Anyway, I read through the mailing list and found that setting specific
ports was what I needed and on testing I found that this worked. My
question is in the build options, what's the difference
between --with-portrange and --with-tcpportrange ??? When I
do ./configure --help I see:
--with-portrange=low,high bind unreserved TCP server sockets to
ports within this range unlimited
--with-tcpportrange=low,high bind unreserved TCP server sockets to ports
within this range unlimited
Which appear to be the exact the same thing ... I read through the
portusage document and that didn't make things any clearer.
