Now it looks like you're bumping into firewall rules. Before,
you couldn't bind() the low port number. Now, ipfwadm/ipchains
(what model RaQ?) is preventing the packets from flowing.
NTP runs on port 123, and "time" on 37. I know NTP uses UDP;
beyond that, I'd need to STFW/RTFM in a hurry on where TCP/UDP
can or must be used.
