Greetings,
We are running AIX 6.1 TL 7 Unix of course.
The Cloverleaf software uses the ephemeral port range
as defined by your system admin: default is 32K to 64K.
Avoid using these ports for any interfaces developed in Cloverleaf.
Hcicmd uses this range to get its port for communication with process
threads. Cloverleaf multi-connect server threads (interfaces)
also use the ephmeral range.
Also: as a rule we avoid ranges below 8K as some system services
use these ports for various utilities and services. Check your /etc/services file if you are curious.
We are running the 5.8.5.0 Integrator and plan to apply Revision 6
which fixes some issues with hcicmd and server port problems.
Hope this helps to narrow down your problem.
