Default Re: Ports connection refused

Start a service made to listen on those ports. You can also do it
manually with a general TCP tool like netcat (great tool, comes w/SUSE)
with the following syntax (one per port):

netcat -l -p 6112

Note that just listening on a port for fun doesn't net you much, but if
you had a service listening there then it makes more sense; on the other
hand, telling the server to listen isn't something you usually need to do
on your own as it happens when the service starts (or else the service
would have no networking purpose).

Good luck.
