Hey folks,
      Found tcp/1494 open to a server during a pen test, black-box
style.  Are there any interesting tools that may be available to extract
information from the server on the receiving end?

The easiest thing to do is telnet (or use netcat) to the port to see if
it responds with a version or any other information.

Also if you know the OS, then just google for that port and narrow down
your results by OS.
