How to open port? 2

[coolice]

Hi!

i'm encountering error connecting from my server to a client on specific port. I issued "telnet <client_name> 13782" and gave me "could not open connection to host on port 13782", but connecting from client to server over the same port is ok. I would like to know how to open that port on the client side.

Appreciate your help. Thanks.

hi dvong3 ,

what is bpjava-msvc ? is not that running on the port 13782 ?
do a "grep 13782 /etc/services" to looks for a conflict.
lsof -i will be more explicit then netstat.

hi Irangelaz ,

re-read this thread.
If you are sure it's not a router problem, netstat -a will show you if port 25 is on a listening state on you system. if not launch your sendmail server.

Not sure what it is...but it belongs to veritas port probably GUI management when I install the veritas client. It also included 2 xinetd functions, bpcd & bpjava-msvc...i think. I did not find any ports conflicting with 13782. Here is the output for lsof -i.
