Running Mandriva2005LE (kde3.2) and using a Linksys WAG54G Router/Gateway.

Everything usual is working fine for this stand alone system but I need to check whether or not a particular port is open.

Pinging a particular address is without problem but a traceroute for the same address goes nowhere.

Now I've reached my level of understanding so am seeking advise from anyone who would care to point me in the right direction so that I get to understand how to use Mandriva ( albeit at konsole ) to check this out and if found blocked, how to allow a particular program to access the net via a particular port. ( Port is in the 5XXX range and the program is OpenMFG_DEMO ).

So I guess that the first thing is to ensure that Mandriva is allowing the program though before I double check the Linksys setup.

Any suggestions anyone ?
