I currently have an application running on Ultrix which uses TCP/IP.
Each machine in the network has a server running on it.  The server is
opened in passive mode and listens at a known port for traffic.  Under
Ultrix this "known port" is defined by adding an entry for my server
into the file /etc/services.  How is this done under VMS?  How are the
well-known ports defined?  Or does this depend on the TCP/IP software
you have?
