I mean what are the different ways to connect from a hp-ux machine to windows machine. Should any thing to be enable in the HP-UX machine.

Once again it depends on what you wish to do.

There are no configurations that say "oops it is a windows server, do not connect to it"

Windows by default offers little if any external connection services to non-windows clients.

You can install a service like ftp or maybe some other weird 3rd party apps. But what would you do if it could be a telnet or ssh server ? Connect to a dos prompt ?

HI

First i would to thanks u for the interest

To complete my task, I have to run an application in HP-UX, which connects to my local machine(Windows)to port 14500.

Right now I am getting an error message that "connection refused". can you please check it once.

I have stopped firewall in my local machine and tried, but error is same.

**************
# telnet 9.77.122.132 14500
Trying...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused

this was the message which I got it from the team.

Thanks,
Senthil

The connection is being refused, for some reason, on 9.77.122.132

The issue exists on 9.77.122.132. Most likely the program listening to port 14500 is looking for some handshaking to occur or has some source restictions, and/or it could very well be a firewall issue.

Unfortunatly the destination is not HPUX and is running some unknown software, so the help here is going to be limited if non-existant.

What I can tell you, because the error message says "refused" instead of just "trying" then a timeout it means that it reached something on that end and was denied the service.

Cannot add much more, sorry.

Hi

It looks like you are trying to connect to a machine which has no telnet service available.

Has your windows machine already installed an running the telnet service?

"Connection refused" normally means that
there is _no_ program listening at that port.

Can you do an equivalent Telnet command from
the Windows system to its own port 14500? If
that doesn't do any better, it should tell
you where the problem is.

If it's not too much to ask, what is supposed
to be listening at port 14500?

Hi,
User FTP...

To Activate ftp use SAM.

Or You have to install SAMBHA server in your HP-UX Machine.

And this will do what for port 14500?

And this will do what for port 14500?

This is all great fun, but perhaps it would
be wise to wait for a clear explanation of
what the questioner is actually trying to do
before suggesting ways to do whatever it may
actually be. The probability of guessing a
correct answer to a question which is still a
mystery seems (to me) to be vanishingly
small.

Or maybe that "port 14500" stuff was thrown
in just to confuse us. What do you think?

"To complete my task, I have to run an application in HP-UX, which connects to my local machine(Windows)to port 14500."

that's nice....so what's it supposed to connect to on port 14500?

Given that 14500 is not a port typically associated with standard components, is there a specific client software component that the software on the HP-UX server is supposed to connect?

If so, did you install it?
