How to make static listening ports

[Dave_A__from_Lifeboa]

Customer writes:

We have installed the Intel C++ and Fortran Composer XE 2011 and have successfully got thelicenses to float across all our host(s). I also configured the firewall to allow the port(s) itslistening on. The only problem is, when the license host gets rebooted the INTEL listeningdaemon chooses a different port, the Intel license manager daemon stays the same 28518:

[wgoodman@g2-blsb020 ~]$ sudo netstat -tpln | grep -i intel

tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:28518 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 4931/lmgrd.intel

tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:34861 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 4932/INTEL

But the INTEL daemon (34681) changes every time the system is rebooted. My question is:Is there a configuration file that I can set this to be static? Meaning stays the same after reboot?

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks.....Dave A. from Lifeboat Distribution

Hi Dave,

You could specify a particular port number in VENDOR line, like this, in your license file. That will not invalidate your license file. Please let me know if you have further question.

VENDOR INTEL port=1234

Thank you.
