<h3>PARAMETERS</h3>
<dl>
<dt> <var>host_priv</var> 
<dd>
[in host-control send right]
The host for which to set the special port. 
Currently, this must be the per-node host control port.
<p>
<dt> <var>node</var> 
<dd>
[in scalar]
The index of the node for which the port is to be set.
<p>
<dt> <var>which_port</var> 
<dd>
[in scalar]
The index of the special port to be set.  Valid values are:
<dl>
<p>
<dt> <strong>NORMA_DEVICE_PORT</strong>
<dd>
[device-master send right] The device master port for the 
node.
<p>
<dt> <strong>NORMA_HOST_PORT</strong>
<dd>
[host-name send right] The host name port for the node.
<p>
<dt> <strong>NORMA_HOST_PRIV_PORT</strong>
<dd>
[host-control send right] The host control port for the node.
<p>
<dt> <strong>NORMA_NAMESERVER_PORT</strong>
<dd>
[name-server send right] The registered name server port for 
the node.
</dl>
<p>
<dt> <var>special_port</var> 
<dd>
[in norma-special send right]
Send right to the new special port.
</dl>
<h3>DESCRIPTION</h3>
<p>
The <strong>norma_set_special_port</strong> function sets the special
port belonging to <var>node</var> on <var>host_priv</var>.
<p>
Each node maintains a (small) set of node specific ports.  The device master 
port, host name, and host control ports are maintained by the kernel.
The kernel also permits 
a small set of server specified 
node specific ports; the name server port is an example and is given (by
convention) an assigned special port index.
<h3>RETURN VALUES</h3>
<p>
Only generic errors apply.
