You can check if the port is in use using netstat. For example. to see if port 1100 is available:
[user@server AREmail]$ netstat -na |grep 1100 *.1100 *.* 0 0 49152 0 LISTEN If you get a line back that says LISTEN, it means that the port is already in use. If you try to use a port that is already in use, I expect that either the email engine will not start or it will start but not respond to admin requests.
