What should I do when I want to add lines of duplicated port to /etc/services?
Issue
-
I'd like to install a third party software on our server. The software requests to add lines like below on /etc/services.
netmdm 30000/tcp # NETM/DM netmdmw 30001/tcp # NETM/DM netmdmclt 30002/tcp # NETM/DM netmdmclt 30002/udp # NETM/DM
-
However, these ports has already used by 'pago-services'.
# grep 3000[0-9] /etc/services pago-services1 30001/tcp # Pago Services 1 pago-services1 30001/udp # Pago Services 1 pago-services2 30002/tcp # Pago Services 2 pago-services2 30002/udp # Pago Services 2
-
I'd like to remove 'pago-services' lines if it would be safe.
