grep cvs /etc/services says 2401, both TCP and UDP. Of course, using it over SSH will use port 22 instead.

Answer 2

The default pserver port is 2401 but, of course, that's no guarantee that your particular server will be using that port. However, since you asked for the default, 2401 is the answer.
