21 and 23 are just the standard telnet and ftp ports. Everything is in
clear text, you can sniff the userids and passwords and find out that
information. The 8xxx and the 449 ports are used by the 5250 emulator
software. More than likely they are running IBM's Client Access software.
Each one of those ports has a separate function, one is data transfer, one
is sign on, and so forth. More than likely you will have an easier time
sniffing for a telnet password, I don't think a lot of people have done any
exploration of those ports.
