Douglas,

#So, why would you not simply use the sepaerate port numbers for the
#seperate applications; and why would a firewall not know the difference
#between these ports?
#(Please forgive this newbie, O Great Firewall Wizards)

#Am I missing a huge foundation of knowledge here?

Telneting to a port that a telnet server does not exist on just creats a
raw TCP connection.  With a raw TCP connection I can emulate protocols that
exists on top of TCP (albeit very slowly).

Jeffery Gieser
