That sounds like IP:port (eg 192.168.0.99:205)
Try setting the port (it probably should be IPAddress & ":" & ascii
character 205).
But...you might save a little time by asking the administrator what the
needed port number is, just in case it's not being represented right...205
is a little "surprising"...but--after checking--only a little. That port
is devoted to AppleTalk. From /etc/services on Mac OS X:
at-5 205/tcp #AppleTalk Unused
at-5 205/udp #AppleTalk Unused
