How to open port 1001 on AIX 6.1

Hi all,

I have problem while starting Oracle Listener on port 1001\(I think it's well known ports\).

It's error "Permission denied"

I can start it on port 1111 and no any service started on port 1001(netstat -an).

Can I start on this port ??, How ??

Thank you

ports from 1024 and lower are root privileged ports, and you will need root authority to bind to these ports. we typically setup sudo for the account and the specific command line being used for these circumstances. hth

Exactly, port numbers 0 through 1023 are assigned by RFC 1700... anyway oracle sets listener ports to values above 1500...

Thanks unxscorob & vbe,

vbe, it possible to assign port in range 0 - 1023 for listener

You got your answer in the very first reply:

Just only root and sudo setting, Ok thanks all.
