To supplement, you can also get pid of the process holding the port open on Windows. On XP and above (meaning 2003 etc.), add -o switch (netstat -ano). Below XP, Sysinternals's TCPView is the only tool I know that does this job.

-n switch may be needed for netstat in case Windows is too helpful and indiscriminately substitutes the strings in %systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\services for the port numbers you're looking for.

The desparate way to find the correct port is try connecting, one by one, to each marked LISTENING (LISTEN on UNIX).
