We are a new site implementint Software Technologies Corp.,(STC),
Datagate product for inter-system and inter-applications communication
and translation in a healthcare environment. This system can either use
serial communications or TCP/IP socket to communicate with HL-7 message
formatting.
My problem is that we need to establish a number of sockets for the
various communication transactions between processes running on diverse
systems.
Being a relative novice to Unix, the Alpha product and TCP/IP sockets, I
need to establish a number of sockets for the various transaction
types.
I have located the description of the defined sockets in /etc/services,
but I have been unable to locate a reference to the range of socket
numbers available for application program use under DU 4.0b.
Can anyone out there provide a reference that I might consult?
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Can anyone point me to a source for this information?
