Can ping can't tcp /web

[The Doctor]

All right I have a WinXPSP3 box that can ping and tracert / resolve

IP address / DNS



but telnet into a specific port (80, 22 ,25) and choke.



What is happening ?

Telnet into said Windows XP box from another machine?



Just because you can ping/resolve/tracert - doesn't indicate/mean any of the

listed ports are opened and/or there is anything installed that can respond

to the request on that port.
