[mythtv-users] How To Telnet In (Was: KnoppMyth, too good to be true?)

I'm trying to telnet into my system (because the screen is black  
otherwise) and having a bit of a problem.

My logic may be wrong, but I think I can deduce the IP address thusly:

I have a firewall, a server, and one (Windows) machine running on my  
network, and the would-be Myth machine.

I know the firewall is 192.168.0.1, the server is 192.168.0.3, and the  
Windows machine is 192.168.0.4. Oh, yeah, and I have a NAS at 192.168.0.6.

I wrote a script to run through 192.168.0.* and got a response on  
192.168.0.255, so that's gotta be the Myth machine, right?

Now, if I try to telnet to it, though, I get a "could not open a  
connection" error. Port 23 is perhaps closed by default?
