you don't just open up port 23, this is the well-known telnet port... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 04, 2000 11:01 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [newbie] Telnet through different ports? Hi there. My friend and I are trying to telnet into my machine, but he's behind a firewall that doesn't let anything but web traffic out (port 80). How can we setup my machine to listen for a telnet session on port 80 so he can get in? Thanks. Cya, Cloak
