<!-- Converted from text/plain format -->
<P><FONT SIZE=2>to your first question, no the gateway isn't a proxy as well.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>As for access control...</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>From the PC side, it looks like it's being dropped immediately,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>but from the server side (tcpdump), there is negotiation, so</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>I know it's reaching the server. and when the proxy server</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>isn't running, there is the same negotiation, which is also the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>same as when I try to telnet to another port which doesn't have a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>listener.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Possibly it's access control on the system side, but it shouldn't.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I'll have to try to set it up on the PC side now and see what I get.</FONT>
</P>
<BR>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Thanks</FONT>

<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>It could be that the proxy only binds the socket for 8080 for </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>localhost,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>not for general IP adresses (but I find that highly </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>improbable). What is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>the exact error? Can telnet establish a connection, but it gets closed</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>immediately? This would point to some sort of access control. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>Or, if the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>connection cannot be established per se, then the port isn't visible</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>from outside the server, i.e. the socket is bound to accept only from</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>>localhost.</FONT>
