Here are several different ways to test a TCP port without telnet.

BASH (man page)

$ cat < /dev/tcp/127.0.0.1/22
SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_5.3
^C

$ cat < /dev/tcp/127.0.0.1/23
bash: connect: Connection refused
bash: /dev/tcp/127.0.0.1/23: Connection refused

cURL

$ curl -v telnet://127.0.0.1:22
* About to connect() to 127.0.0.1 port 22 (#0)
*   Trying 127.0.0.1... connected
* Connected to 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) port 22 (#0)
SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_5.3
^C

$ curl -v telnet://127.0.0.1:23
* About to connect() to 127.0.0.1 port 23 (#0)
*   Trying 127.0.0.1... Connection refused
* couldn't connect to host
* Closing connection #0
curl: (7) couldn't connect to host

Perl

# perl

my $socket = new IO::Socket::INET(
  PeerHost => '127.0.0.1',
  PeerPort => '22',
  Proto => 'tcp',
);

print "connected to the server\n";
^D

The 'find' Command

The command used to search for files is called find. The basic syntax of the find command is:

find filename

The currently active path marks the search location, by default. To start searching the whole drive you would type the following:

find / filename

If, however, you want to start searching for the folder you are currently in then you can use the following syntax:

find . filename

When you search by name across the whole drive, use the following syntax:

find / -name filename

The first part of the find command is the find command itself.
The second part is where to start searching from.
The next part is an expression which determines what to find.
Finally the last part is the name of the thing to find.

Search Location Shortcuts

The first argument after find is the location you wish to search. Although you may specify a specific directory, most people use a metacharacter to serve as a substitute. The three metacharacters that work with this command include:

Period: specifies the current and all nested folders
Forward Slash: specifies the entire filesystem
Tilde: specifies the active user's home directory

Tip: Searching the entire filesystem is likely to generate a lot of access-denied errors. Run the command with elevated privileges (e.g., by using sudo), if you need to search in places your standard account normally cannot access.

Expressions

The most common expression you will use is -name. The -name expression lets you search for the name of a file or folder.

There are, however, other expressions you can use:

amin n: The file was last accessed n minutes ago
anewer: The file was last accessed more recently than it was modified
atime n: The file was last accessed more n days ago
cmin n: The file was last changed n minutes ago
cnewer: The file was last changed more recently than the file was modified
ctime n: The file was last changed more than n days ago
empty: The file is empty
executable: The file is executable
false: Always false
fstype type: The file is on the specified file system
gid n: The file belongs to group with the ID n
group groupname: The file belongs to the named group
ilname pattern: Search for a symbolic line but ignore case
iname pattern: Search for a file but ignore case
inum n: Search for a file with the specified node
ipath path: Search for a path but ignore case
iregex expression: Search for a expression but ignore case
links n: Search for a file with the specified number of links
lname name: Search for a symbolic link
mmin n: File's data was last modified n minutes ago
mtime n: File's data was last modified n days ago
name name: Search for a file with the specified name
newer name: Search for a file edited more recently than the file given
nogroup: Search for a file with no group id
nouser: Search for a file with no user attached to it
path path: Search for a path
readable: Find files which are readable
regex pattern: Search for files matching a regular expression
type type: Search for a particular type
uid uid: Files numeric user id is the same as uid
user name: File is owned by user specified
writable: Search for files that can be written to

Example Usage of the Find Command

HOW TO FIND FILES ACCESSED MORE THAN A CERTAIN NUMBER OF DAYS AGO
To find all the files within your home folder accessed more than 100 days ago:

find ~ -atime 100

HOW TO FIND EMPTY FILES AND FOLDERS
To find all the empty files and folders in your system:

find / -empty

HOW TO FIND ALL OF THE EXECUTABLE FILES
To find all of the executable files on your computer:

find / -exec

HOW TO FIND ALL OF THE READABLE FILES
To find all of the files that are readable:

find / -read

Patterns
When you search for a file you can use a pattern. For example, search for all files with the extension mp3:

find / -name *.mp3

How to Send Output from the Find Command to a File
The main problem with the find command is that it can sometimes return too many results to look at in one go. Pipe the output to the tail command or you can output the lines to a file as follows:

find / -name *.mp3 -fprint nameoffiletoprintto

How to Find and Execute a Command Against a File
To search for and edit a file at the same time:

find / -name filename -exec nano '{}' \;

The above command searches for a file called filename and then runs the nano editor for the file that it finds.
