I wonder how stuff like this works in windows (xp and other that have telnet):
Start-> Run -> cmd -> telnet <xyz.com> http
Start-> Run -> cmd -> telnet <xyz.com> pop3
Start-> Run -> cmd -> telnet <xyz.com> smtp
Are these "named" ports? Only windows knows that it has to substitute port numbers coz these are standard ports? Is there way I could create such a named port on windows? I would like something like this :
telnet <xyz.com> oracle
to translate to
telnet <xyz.com> 1521
