I'm trying to create a simple listening socket in my app with BSD sockets. I am unable to get bind() to work when passing it the port I want to use, 780. You need admin privileges to use privileged ports, which means all ports below 1024. According to /usr/include/sys/errno.h, 13 is EACCESS. According to bind manpage, EACCESS means that "The requested address is protected, and the current user has inadequate permission to access it." This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
