Where I am hazy is that I am not sure if it is coming in in the form of an hhttp post all I am told it is a tcp connection that sends this data

Assuming you can get your client to send some test requests, use a tool like netcat to listen on a specified port, open your firewall to allow the traffic through and have a look at what comes in. e.g.
nc -l -p <port number to listen on>

If it is http, but you can't specify the url, you'll need to make sure the requests get handled by coldfusion (should be easy enough). If it's not http, you'll have to handle the incoming connections using something other than a web server. That'll be a pain in the ass because you've another service to worry about, but most general purpose programming languages make light work of writing simple tcp socket servers.
