Wow! I've just taken a really quick look, but Bravo! Excellent work! - John -- In those days, you could not buy a $2000 200MHz Pentium server.

Most of you are aware of the IANA list of registered IP ports and services, at http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers Much of this information pre-dates the Web, and the list contains no hyperlinks, only a name and email address. A few weeks ago I had the crazy(?) idea to mail registrants and ask them for URLs and information on their protocols. As might be expected, there were a large (more than half) number of broken addresses, but the response from those that were still valid was overwhelming (thank you everyone!) and I realized that I couldn't handle all the information in a reasonable time frame, so mailed again asking people to fill in a simple form. (I guess I should have done this to start with but it seemed more polite to ask, rather than saying "go to http://foo.bar and fill it in!") Anyhow, there are a lot of results back which I had said in the mailout that I would make public (which was the whole point of the exercise). They are at http://andrew.triumf.ca/ports2/ with a (somewhat haphazard) lookup script at http://andrew.triumf.ca/cgi-bin/port/ (which also searches some lists of trojans etc.). A couple of notes: IANA now has a template for registrants to update their contact information - please do so if you are a registrant (or know of one). http://www.iana.org/cgi-bin/mod_portno.pl IANA has been collecting technical information from new registrants, but it hasn't been flagged as open/proprietary, so they have (rightly) been treating it as proprietary, to the surprise of a few open protocol registrants. http://andrew.triumf.ca/ports2/ was populated from the submission form, while http://andrew.triumf.ca/ports/ was populated by hand from various sources and from the first few dozen replies to the first mailout. I should probably merge them. The script searches both. -- Andrew Daviel, TRIUMF, Canada Tel. +1 (604) 222-7376 security () triumf ca
