How do you force inetd to assign a priviledged port to a 
rpc deamon on SunOS 4.1.1?

I've put a line in /etc/inetd.conf as:

 abcd/1      dgram   rpc/udp wait root /usr/etc/rpc.abcd rpc.abcd

Another line in /etc/services as:

abcd	1023/udp

which I don't think it cares.

And finally a line in /etc/rpc as:

abcd	100036 abcd


If abcd is started up manually, rpcinfo -p shows that it occupies port#
1023 with program id 100036.

When it's started up by inetd instead, inetd assigns port number greater
than 1024 for abcd.  

I need it to be less than 1024, any idea?

My appreciation to your enlightening.
