Eureka!!  Ok, now how do I open a port.  Wait, using IPChains I would do the 
following..

ipchains -A input -j ACCEPT -i eth0 (ExtIF) -p tcp -s $UNIVERSE -d 
xyz.xyz.xyz.xyz 26

ipchains -A output -j ACCEPT -i eth0 -p tcp -s xyz.xyz.xyz.xyz 26 -d $UNIVERSE

So that will allow traffic in.  But that won't open a port.  OR do I need 
to??  I would prefer to use TCP Server, but I would be willing to use inetd.. 
 Any ideas

Thanks
