Hi, I've set up an ident server on my broadband connection. However, I cant seem to connect to it from anywhere on the internet. I tried just running a listen server on port 113, and connecting to that, and i get

tcpconnect: Can't connect to server: No route to host

I tried it with other ports and they all seem to get through, its just port 113 that doesnt. Which leads me to ask, does NTL block port 113, or am I doing something silly and wrong (which could be the case, especially at this time of the morning lol)

I cant really see any logical reason to block it, ident is harmless and all other ports I tried are open.

cheers
