There are some servents running on ports smaller than 1024. Why not remove it?
It is my understanding that ports below 1024 are 'reserved' for conventional applications... I suspect the port selected has more to do with not having a likely conflict with another application. Considering the proliferation of Gnutella clients... at this point it would not seem reasonable to change. -- But then again that's just my opinion
