1) You are working with a normal user?
2) you are running with the only base disk?

if 1) and 2), you are using rustic script for telnetting. As normal
users, you cannot.

Please, try
1) as root
2) mounting the WKS (or SRV?) addon.

Right, for rustic telnet: it use "nc", and maybe as normal-user
you cannot attach some privileged port.

Please: try as "root". I like to know if added some bug recently.
