On a request-by-request basis you can test request.host_with_port. But, AFAIK, Rails is unaware of the port used by the web server until that server makes a request. If it were otherwise, it would be difficult to run a pack of mongrels in front of the app. Perhaps if you said more about what you mean by 'register my server with another server', we could be more help.
