Yes, since posting, I found an archived post suggesting this, in which I
find new information. However, I cannot understand its meaning:

Yes, and no . . .
# telnet localhost 10080
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
# telnet localhost 10082
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.
# telnet localhost 10083
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.

Our capacity for understanding is inversely proportional to how much
we think we know. The more I know, the more I know I don't know . . .
