PostgreSQL typically uses port 5432 for client-server communications.
It would be a good idea to register this with IANA.  This will help to
avoid a clash with other services that might try to use the port.
DB2, Interbase, MS SQL, MySQL, Oracle, Sybase, etc. are already
registered.

Might someone with a reasonable grasp of the low level messages in
PostgreSQL care to submit a registration?
