It most likely is a message printed by the executable itself and probably means that the executable needs a port number as a parameter on the command line, e.g.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. your_executable.exe 12345
  2.  
where 12345 is the port number; I don't know if it has any particular port numbers in mind though ...

kind regards,

Jos
