    Should be an Unreal Tournament server. 7777 is the game join port (the
    actual game port is > 7777, one per gamer). But the port is UDP so I don't
    understand fully your "connect to it".... Anyway you can test it using the
    game :-) Look if the same server has the 7776 TCP port open (should be the
    default web admin port)....

    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,
