I've been trying to link /proc/sys/sunrpc/max_resvport to the process
the portmapper uses to allocate ports from but have not found it.  So
perhaps somebody here can answer what I hope is a simple question.

Can /proc/sys/sunrpc/max_resvport be used to limit (the upper bound of)
the port range that the portmapper will allocate for all RPC servcies?
If I set it to, say, 900, I can be guaranteed that no RPC servers will
get bound to ports > 900?

Thanx,
b.
