It is possible to define services by creating files in /etc/portreserve/
which contain a name listed in /etc/services.
However it is not possible to create a service using the port number.
This is due to a call to getservbyport (port, NULL) failing since port
is in host byte order, but geservbyport expects network byte order. To
fix it, convert the "port" to network byte order.
getservbyport (htons(port), NULL);
