You should check out your /etc/services file, there are a couple of lines at
the end of it that look like this:

# stuff to play net games
#sgi-dogfight	5130/udp			# dog fighting with others
#arena		5131/udp

to get both arena and dog to work remove the "#" in the first column on both
of those lines and then it should work
