portmap_program Parameter
-------------------------

   (type=numeric, default=300019).  Specify an alternate Port-mapper RPC
program number, other than the official number.  This is useful when
running multiple Amd processes.  For example, you can run another Amd
in "test" mode, without affecting the primary Amd process in any way.
For safety reasons, the alternate program numbers that can be specified
must be in the range 300019-300029, inclusive.  Amq has an option `-P'
which can be used to specify an alternate program number of an Amd to
contact.  In this way, amq can fully control any number of Amd
processes running on the same host.
