I seriously love you now. I still don't understand why it worked
before... Also, does this IP tables thing mean that there WAS a
firewall blocking the connection? If so, I think I'll have a go at my

iptables -I RH-Firewall-1-INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 2727 -j ACCEPT
Thank you for your response, you've saved many hours of pulling my
hair out.
