You need to run netstat as root to see the servers.

# netstat -tuplen

netstat -lnp | grep 6546 gives nothing. Only the -v switch produces output:

netstat -lnpv | grep 6546 netstat: no support for `AF INET (sctp)' on this
system. netstat: no support for `AF IPX' on this system. netstat: no
support for `AF AX25' on this system. netstat: no support for `AF X25' on
this system. netstat: no support for `AF NETROM' on this system.
