Hi, I am using windows 2k, i need to check whether my tcp ports are opened or closed. is there any way to check the ports through command prompt.

Hi, at the command prompt type
netstat -aIt shows which ports are listening for connection.
Also try netstat -? for more options.

If you have any linux machine NMAP can tell you the required details. #NMAP < ip address for the machine(your machine)
