open ports on server

[incapable]

HI

I would like to know if it is possible for me to open a port
on my sql server and then telnet to that port?

As far as I know you can only telnet to ports that have applications listening on them.

What is it that you want to achieve?

The default port for Telnet is 23. Open it

Don't Open it, avoid clear-text protocols. Utilize SSH on Port 22.... use putty for win32.

don't for get to start the telnet service on the sql server, this will open the port (23) stop/disable it when your done.
