Hi All, I have been googleing for 3 days, still couldn't find correct answer yet for this issue. hopeing someone would help me out here. I have 2 windows2008R2 servers running in the same subnet, actually they are cable connected to each other directly. Both have firewall disabled. Server A can ping Server B successfully, but when i tried to telnet from Server A to a certain port on Server B, it fails. this port is on listening state, and the port local address is 0.0.0.0:1234 (not bind to 127.0.0.1). The wireshark captured data on Server B says that the TCP [SYN] packet was received by ServerB, and ServerB responced with a TCP [RST,ACK] packet instade of a [SYN, ACK]. which seems exactly same as the port is not listening. Appreciate for any comments. asked 14 Aug '14, 03:42  ckliu edited 14 Aug '14, 03:51 |

are you also telnetting to port 1234? or are you trying to connect to the standard port 23? you should be able to see what port your client is using in the trace. answered 14 Aug '14, 04:05  Jasper ♦♦ |
sounds like the socket is not in LISTEN mode, although you say it is. Please post:

not port23, it is a certain port used by a certain software. i just assum it is 1234. when i type "netstat -nba" in ServerB , i can see the port is listening.
I don't know how you run your telnet client, but you need to specify the port you want to connect to if it is not 23. So normally you'd run it like this: "telnet IPADDRESS 1234".
yes, I did telnet IPADDRESS 1234, and in the destination server wireshark dump data, we can see there was a [syn] packet coming in, but the destination server responded with a [rst, ack] packet while it has port 1234 listening.
