Add ing to /etc/services is not enough -- that file just provides some
translation information to other programs (mainly inetd and portmap). You
need to run a daemon that actually listens on that port. the inetd
superserver and the portmap redirerctor are the two general-purpose daemons
for this, or you can run a port-specific daemon on port 1964 (much as smtp
and http commonly run directly on ports 25 and 80).

Without knowing what "crlserver" is, I can't suggest which approach would be
better.
