Check open ports and connections with ss and netstat
Find which ports your Linux server listens on, which process owns them, who is connected and how to test a port from outside using ss, netstat, lsof and nc.
Check that Windows is listening on RDP port 3389
Confirm from inside the server that Remote Desktop is configured for port 3389, the service is running and Windows is actually listening, then fix any mismatch.
Check which ports are open and listening on Linux
Use ss and lsof to list every listening port on your VPS, find the process behind each one, tell localhost from public bindings and close what you do not need.
