Marco,

I don't run the version of AMBEserver installed via the Compass install, but I know you change the port used by AMBEserver with the -p option when starting it. I'd take a look in the startup script in /etc/init.d which launches it at boot time. You can probably add the -p PORT# there and take care of moving it from 2460 to what you want.

For reference, there is a section in my start up script (/etc/init.d/AMBEserver) which looks like this:

 case "$1" in         ;;

Change it to this for Port 9999

 case "$1" in         ;;

Marco,

The file is owned by the system, so you'll need to use an account with root privileges. Then any text editor should be able to open and edit the file, just remember that you can do a lot of damage when editing system files as root.  I'd recommend using the nano editor if your not familiar with linux, here is the command to edit the file as root.

$ sudo /usr/bin/nano /etc/init.d/AMBEserver
