Bug#597135: nstx is hardcoded to start on port 53, it should be configurable
Package: nstx
Version: 1.1-beta6-5
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream
>From the source code:
nstx_tuntap.c
169: sock.sin_port = htons(53);
190: sock.sin_port = htons(53);
198: "listening on UDP-Port 53 on %s\n",
204: fprintf(stderr, "Permission denied binding port 53. You generally "
213: fprintf(stderr, "listening on 53/UDP\n");
I have a setup where I want to run a *real* DNS server on port 53, but
selectively forward things to nstx with iptables depending on the
remote host.
That's not possible without patching the source.
