I'm trying to look into a Perl script using telnet but when I try to connect to:

Telnet 127.0.0.1

It tells me that it can not connect on port 23. What port is Perl using?

Perl is a programming language and not a server.

Then could you tell me how to look into a .cgi script using telnet couse I'm used to connect to port 23.

Telnet 127.0.0.1


For that to have worked your localhost computer would have needed to be running a telnet server. You need to find a computer running a telnet server and have your cgi script connect to that machine.
