An SQL database could be used to keep track of the serv -> port combos. This fits the way getservbyname is defined too.

As an added bonus host -> IP lookups can also be moved into a database, which removes the need for DNS to have full control over said mappings.

I was thinking on that, too. I may implement it, if it's ok to you.

The 'normal' list should be included in the schema, however a userspace application will be required to add/modify/remove entries.

Should a 'generic' network config tool be created, with wrappers around it for compatibility with *nix apps?

See the netconfig app that pcmattman did. It does nothing for now, but can be modified to use a database backend.
