Telnet port 80

[nkrst1]

Seems like a lot of posts go unreplied in this forum, but I'll take a shot.

I'm trying to install an application that requires to telnet to a server through port 80 (not sure why someone would do this, but whatever...). It will never connect.

Port 80 is open for http and I can ping the domain and even get a response through a web browser, but using telnet through port 80 does not work.

Any ideas on how to open up a connection through telent on port 80?

Thanks in advance.

You may need to use the ISA firewall client if the application has no settings to specify an IP address for a proxy server. Port 80 will be open through ISA already for HTTP so I doubt if its a port problem, more than likely the application does not know how to get to your ISA server. The firewall client will direct any non ISA server aware traffic to ISA server.
