[Koha] Z39.50 server timing out

[Liz Rea]

Hi Paul,

I would check for any firewalling that is preventing traffic coming
through on those specific ports. They are commonly blocked, and often
need to be explicitly opened.

Cheers,
Liz

I tried http://zserver.spl.org/ into the URL of a browser and I get an error yet I can pull up www.spl.org just fine.  If I try http://lx2.loc.gov:210/ it works fine.  Any ideas why all the others fail except for the Library of Congress?  Our server is located in Papua New Guinea and we use a VSAT internet connection.
