Cool. How much are you asking? Is it up on eBay?
If you want to find out what's holding port 631 open then you'll need
to run one of the following commands as root.
netstat -natup
The 'p' at the end tells netstat to print the name of the process that
is controlling each of the open ports.
Alternatively you can use the lsof command (again as root):
lsof -nP -i4 -i6
