Subj : Getting the telnet port number

Hey, I'm working on a WebSocket to telnet re-director for Synchronet, and have
a few questions:

1) Is there a property/method I can use to determine what port the telnet
server is running on?  Currently I've hardcoded to connect to
system.local_host_name on port 23, but ideally I'd like the port number to
come from a variable like the host name does

2) Will there be a problem with possibly having multiple connections from the
same IP address?  For example 5 different people could all be connecting via a
WebSocket client, and so the WebSocket server will see 5 unique IP addresses,
but then the Telnet server will see 5 connections from 127.0.0.1.  If if's
possible that some systems have a "only 1 connection per IP" rule in place,
that'd be problematic, but I don't know if that's an option, or commonly
enforced if it is.

3) How do I get the service included in the official Synchronet release
archives (hopefully enabled by default, but even if it's disabled but included
that would be great too)?  Or do I just distribute on my own site and hope
people find it?

Thanks,
Rick
