How to run BF agent with different port rather than 5555?

Dear,

I have some questions regarding installing and starting BF agent on HP-UX machine.

1) I installed BF Agent on HP-UX with root but when I started agent error occured.
It says "can not open shared library zlib.sl".
Anybody knows reason?

2) I compiled agent source on HP-UX and successfully generated bfagent executable file.
Should I install this image or run bfagent directly without installing?

3) How can I specify different port rather than 5555 because 5555 port is in use.
I changed 'port 6666' in bfagent.conf and started agent using 'bfagent -f ./bfagent.conf' but I can't connect using 'telnet localhost 6666'.
Should I change port in /etc/services?

By the way it didn't say any error message even 5555 is occupied by another process.

Any help is highly appreciated.

You do not have the zlib library installed, and need it.

No, you should run the installer.

This is one of the things the installer script takes care of for you.
