[LDM #QZR-407100]: Reverse DNS and LDM

We registered the Well-Known port 388 with IANA.  It's ours.  Most modern UNIX 
systems actually have an entry in the file "/etc/services" designating port 388 
for the LDM.  If someone else is using it for something other than the LDM, 
then that is extremely bad form.

As Tom said, you can work-around this --- but you shouldn't have to.  I would 
contact the culprit.

Regards,
Steve Emmerson
