Question How to check that rpcbind/portmap on AIX allowes updates from non privileged ports?

Hi,

I am trying to implement a service on AIX based on ONCRPC protocal and I want to use a RPC library called oncrpc4j because it is a non-blocked i/o library. I found it works fine on my work machine (WIndows 7) but failed on my AIX work station. The author of oncrpc4j told me that check that rpcbind/portmap on AIX allowes updates from non privileged ports. But I just can find out how to do this, is anybody could provide help? Thank you.

What you are allowed to do is usually a matter of user rights, not of protocols. Please provide details about the user account you want to use to do what you want to do and its properties.

I hope this helps.

Wasn't sure how to word the title... sorry. In HP-UX and AIX specifically you apply a set of patches, not like solaris and linux where you update what's needed individually. So, for example, when going from patch level 1.1 to 1.8 is the time to complete exponential (1.1 -> 1.2 -> 1.3.. so on)... (1 Reply)
