What exactly is it that you're trying to do?  Are you trying to
authenticate to the internet servers, or are you trying to inject
things into Xastir's server port?

The former is simple and described in the first response you
received on this list.

The latter requires a bit more knowledge (although it's really the
same sort of authentication as the former), but if you need help
there I can probably help you.  Just let me know what language
you're writing in.
