This is cool BUT: If a user is behind a tight corporate firewall or has a personal firewall on his PC and hasn't a clue how to configure it he may never be able to access FTP on Port 22 because his security admin won't allow him to or his Norton Personal Exploitedwall will not know what's going on :-) I wouldn't advise to play these games if you're running commercial sites. Same applies to chat servers which run on their own ports, etc, etc. This is why so many chat servers are dedicated machines running their own http modules on port 80. High profile chat servers offer this feature as do calendar servers, thick DMS servers, webmail modules,etc, etc. my 2 cents...
