Any port can be safely used by any application, assuming the application is written securely and the port isn't already in use. Of course, to open a port < 1024 you need root privileges, so maybe that answers your question? If a port < 1024 needs to be used (why, if it's a home-grown app??), the program can drop privileges after the port is open. Hope this helps, ~Patrick
