Heheh, this is probably one of the most kept secrets, but just about every
Macintosh TCP/IP utility I have allows me to append :portnumber or "
portnumber" (a space instead of a ':') after an address to specify a
different port number to use.
So, after clicking on the "Server address" button, enter your
servername:portnum, and as you French say, Voila!
