It uses TCP 902 (by default), for some reason on my most recent SuSE
install it told me that 902 was in use (not so far as I could tell...)
and that it would be using 904 instead (which worked fine).

It may be worthwhile to have your firewall skip traffic on you lo0
(loopback) interface. Also ensure that localhost is defined as 127.0.0.1
in /etc/hosts.

Hope this helps,
