Changing ports

[jeremy garber]

Does anyone know how to change the:

* NetBIOS Session Service (netbios-ssn/139)
* NetBIOS Datagram Service (netbios-dgm/138)

port numbers on MS NT4.0 clients?

Can anyone verify that they are hardcoded in NETBT.SYS or TCPIP.SYS
(and only there so that we might have a possibility of modifying them)?


We've found the registry entry for the NetBIOS Name Service (netbios-ns/137):
HKLM\system\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NetBT\Parameters\NameServerPort


We want to do final testing of newer versions of samba and samba-tng on a
machine (only 1 NIC) on which we already have samba in production.
