Do you remember your netcat prompt? I got a useful answer to this awkwardly written prompt:
"How do I find open TCP ports on a host using netcat? The port I need to find is between 30000 and 40000."
"I'll help you scan for open TCP ports using netcat (nc) in that range. Here's a basic approach:
nc -zv hostname 30000-40000"
followed by some elaboration.
