I am pen-testing a Windows webserver, and a port scan reveals ALL tcp 
ports open. hping also confirms that a SA is returned for any S packets 
sent to any port I try. I can connect via netcat any of the ports, and 
send data, but nothing is returned. In order to verify services, I am 
required to connect and check for a banner or send appropriate protocol 
commands to elicit a response.

Has anyone seen this, or have any idea of what this is?
I seem to recall that milky ways FW behaved that way.
It has been a long time so maybe someone else can confirm.
Then there are ways for a make believe windows server
to do that too. Maybe a honeypot or even a portsentry
like software written to listen on all ports in services.
(But not respond per each ports proto requirements.)
