   Id be tempted to solve this just using the port forwarding. So just forward   
   port 24555 > IPAddressOfPi > 24554   
      
   If you are determined to change the ports for any configured services, MBSE   
   uses inetd right?   
      
   check out the setup.sh script - at the end of this it configures /etc/services   
   which the inetd service uses.   
   My first step would be to edit /etc/services then try a reboot and see if   
   inetd/xinetd picks up the new service config.   
      
   HTH
