Tutorials – Servers > Telnet as a Diagnostic Aid

I don’t know about you, but I can use a reefresher now and again for things like surfing with Telnet to determine if 301 re-directs work…

In a nutshell, you’ll want something like this:

telnet eastvalley.freedomblogging.com 80[cr]
Trying 69.25.233.100…
Connected to eastvalley.freedomblogging.com.
Escape character is ‘^]’.
HEAD / HTTP/1.1[cr]
Host: eastvalley.freedomblogging.com[cr]
[cr]

Note: italic items are sent by the server, whilst non-italic items are typed. Also NOTE the double carriage return ([cr]) at the end.

Javascript Format and Colour

This is a nifty tool to format JavaScript that has been mini-fied. Very nifty for reading JavaScript (although it doesn’t get your function names back, if they’ve been obfuscated…).
