If you are looking to see if something is listening on port 80, you were close with telnet.
Code:
telnet <ip> <port> # not <ip>/<port>
Without the port, telnet will try the default telnet port (port 23).
On most modern unix system telnet is disabled due to security reasons (plain text over network, no encryption etc.), in turn you got (which means telnet is not active on the remote server) :
Code:
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection timed out
Ping will tell you that the server is alive and responding to ICMP requests.
ICMP is also quite often blocked on firewalls, due to ICMP flooding exploits and alike.
I can ping other computers in my office. I can telnet other users in my office but i cannot get out of the office network. If i try to go out side of my network it cannot find host.
Any ideas? (5 Replies)

telnetrc
telnetrc(4) File Formats telnetrc(4)NAME
telnetrc - file for telnet default options
DESCRIPTION
The .telnetrc file contains commands that are executed when a connection is established on a per-host basis. Each line in the file con-
tains a host name, one or more spaces or tabs, and a telnet(1) command. The host name, DEFAULT, matches all hosts. Lines beginning with the
pound sign (#) are interpreted as comments and therefore ignored. telnet(1) commands are case-insensitive to the contents of the .telnetrc
file.
The .telnetrc file is retrieved from each user's HOME directory.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: A sample file.
In the following example, a .telnetrc file executes the telnet(1) command, toggle:
weirdhost toggle crmod
# Always export $PRINTER
DEFAULT environ export PRINTER
The lines in this file indicate that the toggle argument crmod, whose default value is "off" (or FALSE), should be enabled when connecting
to the system weirdhost. In addition, the value of the environment variable PRINTER should be exported to all systems. In this case, the
DEFAULT keyword is used in place of the host name.
