Hi All. This might be OT for the list, but I know there are some decent network admins reading it...
A customer of mine has a static IP address with a server on the back of it, running a few odds and ends. Nothing special - mail, web, news, ftp. He can't currently talk to his server - and nor can I (ssh is open to my address). Running nmap against his address currently[1] gives me a single port open - 5555. So I connected to it... [...@goliath ~]$ telnet <address> 5555 Trying <address>... Connected to <address>. Escape character is '^]'. 501 Not Implemented Content-Type: text/html Connection: close Content-Length: 149 Server: FedoraCore/6 UPnP/1.0 miniupnpd/1.0 <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>501 Not Implemented</TITLE></HEAD><BODY><H1>Not Implemented</H1>The HTTP Method is not implemented by this server.</BODY></HTML> Connection closed by foreign host. (I hit return twice at the point where there is a gap above). Now I'm only expecting one machine there to be running Linux at all - and it's not running FC6. There might be an embedded Linux somewhere - it's a Belkin router; I don't know what they run inside. I rang the ISP, who claimed to be certain that this customer was definitely connected on this IP address. Anyone know what's going on? Thanks. Vic. [1] nmap has given me several very different results over the course of the day. -- Please post to: Hampshire@mailman.lug.org.uk Web Interface: https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hampshire LUG URL: http://www.hantslug.org.uk --------------------------------------------------------------
