We need clarification.
"Port" is a very generic term; there are COM ports, LAN ports, USB ports, KB port, Mouse port, Parallel (aka printer) port, Network (IP/UDP) ports, etc. More detail please. -------------------- Tecknomage

If you're referring to a TCP/UDP port (like port 80 is typical for web browsing) some programs like peer to peer sharing programs have an option in the preferences to select the port they broad cast and receive on. I haven't found a method to force a program to use certain ports if that capability is not written into the program. I found one page that suggests it can be done by editing a "services" file. Read here.

Yes I mean TCP/UDP. We only have access to port 3128 through a proxy. The port I need to use is 43594 but without any admin access on the network I cant change the port I get.

What OS are you using? If you don't have admin access to the network, do you have admin access to the computer you're using?
