Operating Systems Solaris "Connection closed by foreign host error" in Solaris 10 Post 302728707 by kraljic on Thursday 8th of November 2012 09:27:10 AM
Old 11-08-2012
I tried changing the port to 2012 and restarted the service in target. Now, when I try to telnet from source the telnet command hangs. I kept trying Ctrl+C to get the prompt back, but not luck. I had to close and start another putty session.

Source: 192.168.0.178
Target : 192.168.0.179 (the server which has the port I want to check if it is open)


-- Trying to check if port 2012 in 192.168.0.179 is open
-- From 192.168.0.178 I am running the below telnet command
Code:
$ telnet 192.168.0.179 2012
Trying 192.168.0.179...
