TCP Port 27?

[BobSutan]

Just what is this socket for? I looked it up in the IANA port lists, but it just shows as "NSW User System FE". What I need is an explaination of what this actually does.

This is all I could find with an guessed relavancy... Obscure refrence to "National Software Works, Status Report No. 1," RADC-TR-76-276, Volume 1, September 1976

What are you looking for?!

NSW User System Front End


I've tried searching RFCs for it, but no luck. Could be a military system, I see lots of references to minicomputers and such.

I saw some references to Exchange using the port in Google groups, but no one could figure out exactly what exchange was using it for..

Nevermind guys. I think it was something I did, so don't worry about it.

You know that's not fair BobSutan, when you figure out the problem you're supposed to share the solution.


:-P
