Identifying application binding to port

I am installing an application requiring a bind to a < 1000 port on a
UNIX system. Apparently some other app is binding there already, how can
I identify the "blocker" at this port?
Thanks

See the -i switch of 'man lsof'.

lsof is in ports as far as I know. Anyway, on FreeBSD you can just do
'sockstat -ln4'.
