This is a consequence of the patch that fixes bug 222630. What was port 6880 is now a dynamic port chosen in that range, see README.multiuser in the installed docs for further informations.
The range shouldn't be used for your main (and static) listen ports, as per IANA specification (http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers): "The Dynamic and/or Private Ports are those from 49152 through 65535". If you use one of those ports, it might happen that one day you find it not free because the OS decided to assign it to another service. Linux actually has a bigger range (from 32768), but let's follow standards. I'll leave this bug open for awhile to see if someone has other objections, but it's, in fact, a feature. -- Azureus doesn't allow ports above 49151 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/264950 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
