Which program uses port 1393, and is it reachable?
Linux
sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :1393' # process listening on 1393
sudo lsof -nP -i :1393macOS
sudo lsof -nP -i :1393
Windows (PowerShell)

From another machine
nmap -p 1393 -sV <host> sudo nmap -sU -p 1393 <host> nc -zv <host> 1393

Is port 1393 TCP or UDP?
Port 1393 is registered for TCP and UDP.
Is it safe to open port 1393?
It depends on the program that listens on it. Open it only for a service you know and only to the networks that need it. Restrict management and monitoring protocols to the monitoring network.
How do I check if port 1393 is open?
On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :1393'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :1393", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :1393" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 1393 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
