I want to see if port 1878 is open on my Windows Server 2008 R2.
I use VPS server, so i talked with the VPS servers company and asked them to open all ports.
When i'm running telnet 172.0.0.1 1878 i get that the port is not reachable.
Is there another way to see if the port is open or open it?

Use may use software such as nMap to test if a port is working, more specifically if it is closed or open.
You may have to add the -Pn tag incase the port is hidden.
http://nmap.org/
Use the CLI Command:nmap (IP) -p (port)
Or, you may use a web based tool to check it if your VPS is live.

You can use netstat to list out what is used and what isn't. You could also download netcat for windows, which effectively does the same as you trying telnet, it just has a command line option just to test if it can connect. That would be something like:
nc -z 127.0.0.1 1878

So I've been getting this error when I run my program, an F# web app, on my laptop, but not when I run it on my desktop. I know it has something to do with the firewall ports, and I've opened the port my web app uses, but for some reason I still get this error.
The web app is a simple Owin api with SPA front end, and it's meant to get data from my SQL Express database.
When it runs, my web app, is hosted on iis express and I've set it too port :1337. I've done a netstat -a to see all the ports, 1337 is set as listening, while :10000 isn't listed.
Any ideas?
The IP address 127.0.0.1 is always a loopback port and is the same as "localhost". So you can't access that IP across a switch, a router, etc.
Find out the actual IP address of your desktop (where I presume your application is) and try to access it that way. For windows, you can do run "ipconfig" at the command prompt. For Linux you can run "ifconfig"

This is what I encounter:
Port 80 in use by system!
Apache WILL NOT start without the configured ports free!
You need to uninstall/disable/reconfigure the blocking application
2:17:25 PM [Apache] or reconfigure Apache to listen on a different port
this means that some other program on your computer is already using port 80, which is used standard by Apache and other web servers.
I have usually seen that Skype is already using that port for it own purposes. You can safely disable that setting of Skype. Reboot after you have changed this.
See Skype support on port 80/443
If Skype is not the problem, you can use different approaches to see what program is already using port 80.
Windows
Linux
OS X
Disable or reconfigure the blocking program if necessary.

I just installed Apache Tomcat 7 on my Windows 7 machine. My question is, how can I connect to this server from another computer in my home. ideally id like to connect with something like 192.168..:8080 but that does not seem to be working now. This is on a private network so my understanding is that ports being block should not be an issue right? I mean if the computer can ping each other.
Thank you.
Update: I turned of my windows firewall and I was able to connect from another machine. However, I want to do this while my firewall is on. How would I allow it?
May be the firewall be up on the Tomcat installed computer

I am trying to connect to a server(linux) via SSH from a windows m/c via putty.
I can connect to the server from my m/c using putty but when i try to do the same from another machine, i get an error.
All configs are the same. Can you please give some pointers as to what might be the issue.
Note: I am able to do an FTP(port 21) to the same server via WinSCP on both machines. It's just putty which is not doing SSH on the other m/c. It's fine on my m/c.
Any directions would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
Can you log in with WinSCP via SFTP/SCP? If not, then the server might be firewalled against that other machine. Or maybe the two machines are connected to the server with different interfaces and SSH is configured to only listen to one of them. Check the firewall on the server and, for good measure, the firewall on your client.

Is secure FTP (sftp) using SSH (port number 22) always possible when there is ssh available? Currently I'm using PuTTY for SSH. I want to upload files using CuteFTP Pro.
Or do I need ftp server on the server-side?
For sshd (OpenSSH SSH daemon), its a configuration option, which by default is switched on. Look out for the line
Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server
in /etc/ssh/sshd_config. To disable just remove that line.
No, on the server side you need an sftp-binary as well. OpenSSH ships one they call sftp-server. Usually resides in /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server (on a Debian machine for example)
CuteFTP has support for sftp. But keep in mind that your server needs sftp-server on that end first.
