Subject: [Edbrowse-dev] Ports
Date: Wed, 30 Dec 2015 12:57:42 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20151130125742.eklhad@comcast.net> (raw)

Just thinking about ports, in regards to sockets.
I don't know if it's the best way, but the easiest way is to decide
somewhat arbitrarily that edbrowse will use the ports between 47380 and 47390, or some such range.
Microsoft did that when they first came out with their sql server,
if you want to connect to it through odbc you just know it's 3280, or some such
I don't remember the numbers but I use to know.
And being microsoft it became the standard, of course,
so now nobody else touches those ports.
And if they do you can change them in the MS SQL configuration.
So I was thinking edbrowse might use a preset range of ports for its IPC,
and that range could be changed in .ebrc.
