Thanks Stephen
I used the above on tty2, which from the man page I understand means
that this machine will listen for shell commands on port 2080. However,
when try to contact this host from my workstation using:
clive@Apollo:~$ nc -t Homer 2080
Homer.PRIORYROAD [192.168.1.21] 2080 (?) : No route to host
This is all pretty new stuff to me ;) Any suggestions?
Regards
Clive
