Am I the only one who thinks that the privileged port requirement (that
can be disabled on a per-export basis with -noresvport) is just a
little silly in this day and age?
I would really like to make -noresvport the default, and maybe add a
-resvport option for people who are under the false impression that the
privileged port requirement actually buys them extra security.
Thoughts?
