Kamat) Newsgroups: comp.sys.hp Subject: specifying port while invoking telnet Keywords: telnet, port, problem Message-ID: <1361@uceng.UC.EDU> Date: 1 Jul 89 04:52:02 GMT Organization: Univ. of Cincinnati, College of Engg. Lines: 10 Why is it that one can't specify a port by name when using HP-UX telnet? I get a message "Can't assign requested address", although the "services" entries do exist. The port number is accepted correctly, however. -- Govind N. Kamat College of Engineering kamat@uceng.UC.EDU University of Cincinnati Cincinnati, OH 45221, USA
