Spgs. Lines: 14 I am trying to determine where the TCP port list and the UDP port list differ. Obviously, certain protocols such as TELNET and FTP do not run on top of UDP. RFC1010 gives a list of assigned port numbers and states "To the extent possible, these same port assignments are used with the UDP." Can someone direct me to an official UDP list? Are any of the port numbers given in RFC1010 redefined for UDP or is it simply that UDP does not use some of the assigned port numbers? Any help would be appreciated. jeff (hpctdkz.hp.com)
