Subject: telnetd Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hello, Question: I am behind a firewall that doesn't allow incomming connections except on ports 20,25,113. I want to run telnetd on one of these ports, either 20 or 25. So far all I have been able to come up with is swapping the ports between smtp & telnet. Is there a better solution that won't make sendmail scream bloody murder and won't make outgoing telnets default to port 25. (Would it be safe to use 20?) -Christopher Michaels *************************************************************************** * E-Mail: cjm2@acsu.buffalo.edu * * Homepage: http://www.acsu.buffalo.edu/~cjm2 * ***************************************************************************
