Actually the updatesrv could even be started without arguments.

This must have been hell to figure out. I've applied your changes to the
rc.vice.in script in CVS.

What documentation is that? I'd like to correct it. These are the
portnumbers we used before IANA allocated a block of ports for us,
which happened almost three years ago...

The SCM in our "production environmont" is a linux machine. And when we
set up an experimental test-cell we usually don't go for the whole
replicated setup. That is why we never noticed the incorrect updatesrv
startup.
