Only one. If there was more than one process listening on the same port, then there would be no way of knowing which process incoming data was intended for. -DJ Craig

Why should telnet to UDP port fail?

A single port can be configured to listen for UDP or TCP inbound connection requests (or both). Telnet uses TCP. So when you telnet to a specific IP:port, telnet will attempt to make a TCP connection. If there is no TCP listener on the port you specify, then the connection request will be refused. It matters not if you have a UDP listener on the port. Telnet will not be able to establish a connection to a UDP port.
