Okay how about when you want to telente to a computer that is behind a firewall ?
my linux box @ home is part of a network and I think it is behind a firewall ( not really a firewall but a router I guess ) meaning that all PC's here share one IP on the internet ( and every on's got an internal IP inside ). When I visit some sites that allows me to see the IP address of my machine, I see a port number as well. SO, does this mean I can telnet to my PC using this IP+ port combination: say telnet 111.222.333.444:454 ?? ( assuming I let the telnet/ssh option open in my firewall ) ??
