Read ./etc/sophie.cfg from your Sophie 3.04rc1 source tree:
# Port on which Sophie will listen for network connections
#
# Change requires: RESTART
net_port: 4009

Most likely yes.

As said:  [/usr/local]/etc/sophie.cfg  (actual location depends
on  your  ./configure options)
Note that you need to  pass  option  --enable-net  to  ./configure  to
enable network scan support.
