Yes, the Windows machine can access https://www.google.com/ through the web browser, so it must be able to connect to port 443 which serves HTTPS traffic. > A standard config would block it if there isn't a > service running on that port that was allowed, resulting in a > connection timeout. Can you clarify on this? I’m pretty sure port 443 at www.google.com <https://www.google.com/> is open, because everyone need that to Google stuff. I also tried www.example.org:443 <http://www.example.org:443/>, which unsurprisingly gave me another “Connection refused” error. In case it matters, nc returns with error immediately, so it is unlikely due to a connection timeout. Bests, Qingyao
