from /etc/services
nntp         119/tcp  readnews untp  # Network News Transfer Protocol

from the wais paper 
  5. Add in a z3950 entry to /etc/services on TCP port 210.
  6. Add a line like the following to /etc/inetd to cause waisserver to be
     called when a connection comes in on the z3950 port:
        z3950   stream  tcp     nowait  nobody  "

nntp (news) is port 119
wais (z3950) is port 210 
both are tcp
