Explain a bit more. What do you mean by ports? The I/O ports or the network ports like FTP, TelNet etc? Have you tried googling.

On MS-Windows os, look in C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc for hosts and services files. These two files will tell you which ports are used or available for use, but doesn't say whether they are accessible -- some may have been blocked by company policy or filewalls. *nix systems have similar files, but I don't know the standard location for them.
