[otrs] Port Binding

[Richard Hinkamp - BeSite]

Hmm that's weird. We run multiple OTRS installs on a shared webhost 
without a problem. OTRS is a web application which runs when requested, 
not a daemon running all the time. It definitely doesn't bind to a port. 
I think your hosting provider needs to check again.
