thanks for providing all the info, and, yep, you've got yourself a
buglet.  congrats!  ;-)

luckily, it's an easy fix.  and sorry it was hangin' around all this
time...guess not many folks use -b in the 8.x.x world (with a bunch of
consoles).

for conserver-8.1.3 go to line 4512 of conserver/group.c:

  4510                                  (errno == EADDRINUSE) ||
  4511  #endif
  4512                                  (errno == EACCES)) && portInc++) {
  4513              lstn_port.sin_port = htons(bindBasePort + portInc);
  4514          } else {

and change that "portInc++" to a "++portInc".  the same can be applied
to conserver-8.1.1 on line 4406 (but if you've got 8.1.3 going, i'd
certainly stick with it).

hmmm...the 7.2.7 code appears to be the same.  i haven't tried it, but
it probably doesn't work either (doesn't look like it should).  anyone
out there trying to use that can apply the same fix to line 3316.

hopefully this makes everything well and you can have a great vacation.
