[Hampshire] [OT?] This is odd...
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 - . So I connected to it... [...@goliath ~]$ telnet address 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 HTMLHEADTITLE501 Not Implemented/TITLE/HEADBODYH1Not Implemented/H1The 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.

The reply from the line starting 501 looks like the reply one would expect from a web server when throwing something un-http at it. Vic wrote: Hi All.

Yes - and trying GET / or similar gets a 404 response (although I always have to hit return twice). But it's a web-ish server running on port , and claiming to be on Fedora 6.

Re: [Hampshire] [OT?] This is odd...
It's not difficult to configure apache or for that matter most other web servers to run on any non-used port. The default for httpd is to run on port 80, or 443 for shttp requests. non-standard ports use to be quite common in the early days of the web. It would require some manual configuration to change which ever web server to run on on Fedora 6. Either that, or someone may have hacked the server or at sometime a hacked version of httpd was installed on it. ymmv Vic wrote: The reply from the line starting 501 looks like the reply one would expect from a web server when throwing something un-http at it.
