it's a fairly interesting problem (at least to me); I'm not wizard
enough to be able to redirect the connection, but you could
write a perl script that sits on the port and logs the remote
IP connecting, although that would break the service while
you're figuring out who's still connecting.    the other thing I'd
consider (although my quick little experiment didn't quite work)
is turning on/adding to iptables for some logging.

you could also potentially do something with tcp wrappers
if the daemon has the libraries, or maybe some xinetd magic.
