I strongly recommend that you don't use the client for your ports 4222
and 6904 (why those? [just interested]). Use the internal listener. 

As it says in the instructions: 

 $ cp /spider/perl/Listener.pm /spider/local

Then remove the # in front of the line containing 7300, change 7300 to
read 4222. Copy that line. Change that new line's port to 6904.

Disable the relevant services from xinetd and restart the node.
