I'm sorry if I muddied the waters by suggesting using telnet.
I find it a useful tool to quickly test whether I can reach a port,
whether anything is listening, and whether the response is the same as
I got last time/when things were working, even if that response is
to connect for a few seconds and then disconnect (like 80 does).
And I can get the results from ten differnet ports in one screenful
of text.

Cheers,
David.
