This should do nicely.

This means that you are at least getting through to port 1529, but it seems 
that gnatsd is closing the connection immediately. You probably don't have 
'localhost' in the host access list in the gnatsd.conf file in you 
gnats-adm directory. Access control documentation is a mess in GNATS 3, so 
it is understandable if you are confused about this. This is far better in 
the GNATS 4 manual.
