Check TCP port

I have establlished a MSDE server.
I know how to check the TCP port at the server.
But, I also want to know if it is possible to check the
TCP port from other workstation?
Please advise.
Thanks.

in order to check connectivity, you can perhaps ping the server, or telnet
it, like
c:\..\>telnet servername port_num ;
if the screen becomes black you are connected to the SQL Server instance
