Hello gang. I work on a product that includes an FTP server. On OS 9 I had
no trouble listening on the default FTP port [21]. However, after moving my
app. to Carbon and running on OS X I get an OT error trying to listen
[-3212] which I would expect since you must have privs. to listen on well
known ports. As expected, if I log in as root and run my application the
listen posts normally.
What are my options to get my product listening on port 21 w/o being logged
in as root? What is the Apple-approved [tm] way?
