.Sh NAME
.Nm bindresvport
.Nd bind a socket to a privileged IP port
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Fd #include <sys/types.h>
.Fd #include <netinet/in.h>
.Ft int
.Fn bindresvport "int sd" "struct sockaddr_in *sin"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Fn bindresvport
is used to bind a socket descriptor to a privileged
.Tn IP
port, that is, a port number in the range 0-1023.

is a socket descriptor that was returned by a call to
.Xr socket 2 .
.Pp
Only root can bind to a privileged port; this call will fail for any
other users.
.Pp
If the value of sin->sin_port is non-zero,
.Fn bindresvport
attempts to use the specified port. If that fails, it
chooses another privileged port number automatically.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
.Fn bindresvport
returns 0 if it is successful, otherwise \-1 is returned and
.Va errno
set to reflect the cause of the error.
