IPX sockets can be created by normal users. Server range sockets cannot (as with most other non toy OS's). You need the right capabilities for that. You can use a setuid helper to an app if its an issue, or just keep the right capabiltiy bit - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
