Hi, this is what I do smetimes (nly to look at my own things, of
course...):
$ telnet 192.168.1.200 80
...
It might respose by telling me :
..
Trying 192.16.1.200.. 
Connected to 12.168.1.200
...
Then you type in something like this :
GET /help.txt HTTP/1.0
...
It will probably give you a log winded response like this :
HTTP/1.1 20 OK
Date: balbla
Server: Apache/1.3.26 (Unix) blbla
Conetent -Type: text/plain
..
You ca a lot of info from it. You look at your own things of course.
And so forth. Hope that helps.
