Hi Harry,

The LDM will first try to use the portmapper, but if it can't, then it will use 
the well-known port, 388 -- so it should still work.

> UW-IT is planning on blocking inbound connections at our border routers to
> port 111 on October 16th. I can ask for an exception if necessary.
> 
> Should I ask for an exception for the IDD relay I run via the LDM or
> will everything run fine without an exception?

Regards,
Steve Emmerson
