    I am trying to use ncidd on Mac OS X 10.4.1. When I launch ncidd I get the following error and then ncidd exits. What can I do to make this work? I am running as root.

    dualie:~/ncid root# /usr/local/sbin/ncidd -DDv
    Configured to send 'cidlog' to clients.
    Configured to send 'cidinfo' to clients.

      It looks like something else is using port 3333. At your point of failure, ncidd is trying to open the network port it will be using. Try using another port: ncidd -DDvp 6666 if that works, try to find out what is using port 3333, or configure ncidd and ncid to use the port you selected.
