    I've seen IRC servers run on 7777 as an alternative port.

    Did it respond to any IRC style commands?

    Hey there, hoping I could get some help...
     
    I am doing a blind penetration test for a local ISP, and on one of their
    *nix boxes, I came accross port 7777 open. When I connection to it
    (using netcat), I get the message "1 has joined."... but I can get
    nothing else out of it, no matter what I try. any idea on what this
    might be?
     
    Thanks,
