The QEMU project is currently considering to move its bug tracking to another
system. For this we need to know which bugs are still valid and which could be
closed already. Thus we are setting older bugs to "Incomplete" now.
If you still think this bug report here is valid, then please switch the state
back to "New" within the next 60 days, otherwise this report will be marked as
"Expired". Or mark it as "Fix Released" if the problem has been solved with a
newer version of QEMU already. Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.

Title:
QEMU no longer allows to use full TCP port range for VNC
Status in QEMU:
Incomplete
Bug description:
After upgrade to QEMU version 2.1.0 (Debian 2.1+dfsg-4ubuntu6), I am no
longer able to use any TCP port for VNC display.
For example, if I need to assign VNC server a TCP port 443, I used to run:
# qemu-system-x86_64 -vnc :-5457
qemu-system-x86_64: Failed to start VNC server on `:-1000': can't convert to
a number:-5457
expected behavior: as any VNC software, take port base of 5900, substract
5457 display number, and use TCP port 443
I ask to change vnc port conversion routine to allow input values in
range of all TCP ports, from 1 to 65535.
I really depend on ability to use full TCP range for VNC port numbers,
and inablity to do so in new version of QEMU is very disappointing.
