I'd just like to point out that our firewall that sits between the internet
and the htdig.org box in my office gets in the way if you try to connect to
anything other than "safe" ports. (20, 21, 22, 25, 80, etc)
So, instead of getting a "connection refused" you might get a "no route to
host" or similar error. (Try it out with telnet first...) This may affect
your testing.
If you use port numbers above 1024, you'll get different errors.
