OpenDeploy and port 3434

System

Strangely our OpenDeploy processes stated to fail with the following message:

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>C:\iw-home/opendeploy/OpenDeployNG/bin/iwodcmd start portlet-prod -k portletname=sondakika

Unable to Connect to OpenDeploy daemon
Reason: Failed to create Socket
Reason: sockErr=10057, Socket is not connected
Check that the OpenDeploy server on host localhost is listening on port 3434.

This used to work okay, and I see no reason why OpenDeploy is trying to use port 3434. All configuration setting are according to the default port 20014. The base server is in W2K, and the receiver is on AIX. OpenDeploy version is 5.6SP1. Any ideas about what's happening? Thanx.
