I'm getting an error that says 'an entry for the same port tcp 5432 (postgreSQL) already exists' when I try to do step 3 from faq 171. I sure this is because I've done this before but it kinda prevents me from following the faq step by step 100%. Is there a way I can verify which programs are being allowed through this port?

Not sure why this happens but it seems to happen occassionaly. If you reboot it should unlock it or you can just change it to 5433 but youll need to change this at the database login screen where it shows 127.0.0.1 and your username and password so at this screen youll need to change the port to 5433 IF you change it to 5433 when installing
