Well, I tried that. I can connect a telnet session on that port and that does not refuse the connection, it sits there waiting, but I do not know the protocol so I cannot check if it does what it is supposed to.
I also checked who is listening on that port, here is the dialog: sh-3.2# sudo lsof -i -n -P | grep 10024 perl5.18 75844 _amavisd 5u IPv4 0x866f6119e39f833d 0t0 TCP 127.0.0.1:10024 (LISTEN) perl5.18 75844 _amavisd 6u IPv6 0x866f6119e03f253d 0t0 TCP [::1]:10024 (LISTEN) looks sort of correct to me… sytse -- ------------------------------------------ - Sytse Kuijk - ___ - R.S.R. n.v. - o|o - Gijzelaarsstraat 16 - \_____(.)_____/ - 2000 Antwerpen - - GSM: +32 468 20 00 00 - ___ - Phone: +32 3 216 4328 - o|o - E-mail: sy...@pobox.com - \_____(.)_____/ ------------------------------------------ iThink therefore iMac > On 28 nov. 2015, at 18:31, Edgar Pettifogging <ed...@pettijohn-web.com> wrote: > > I would bet that whatever is listening at 127.0.0.1 port 10024 didn't get > restarted when the power came back on.
