to see if the port open from another system ? to check firewall or that a proc is listening on that port ?

you can telnet to the port number "tn hostname portnumber"

tn my_host.com 25

If you are on the box, you can check netstat -an and grep for the port number ...

if you have lsof installed, you can also check the port number is associated with a process via lsof -i: port_number
