Well, my specific problem is that a friend of mine can't connect with his
connection because they block the telnet port.  But I'm thinking they aren't
blocking 8080.  So I figured I'd stop the who's online now on 8080 and make
telnet listen on that port and forward it from the router.

Thanks for everyone's help.
