I may have made a false assumption.  Are you using the TSM Client Acceptor 
service, dsmcad?  If not, then all I've said about ports (except the right one 
has to be open thru the firewall) is wrong.  But if you are using cad, the 
Windows client manual says:

Webports
The webports option enables the use of the Web client outside a firewall.
The webports option enables the use of the Web client outside a firewall by
specifying the TCP/IP port number used by the Tivoli Storage Manager client
acceptor service and Web Client Agent service for communications with the Web
client.
Values for both the client acceptor service and the Web Client Agent service are
required.
If you do not specify this option, the default value, zero (0), is used for 
both ports.
This causes TCP/IP to randomly assign a free port number for the client acceptor
service and the Web Client Agent service. The port value TCP/IP assigns is in 
the
range of 1024 through 5000.
Supported Clients
This option is valid for all clients. The Tivoli Storage Manager client API 
does not
support this option.
Options File
Place this option in the client options file (dsm.opt).. You can set this 
option on the
Web Client tab, WEB Ports fields of the Preferences editor.
Syntax


 WEBPorts cadport agentport 

Parameters
cadport
Specifies the required Tivoli Storage Manager client acceptor service port
number. The range of values is 1000 through 32767. If a value is not specified,
the default, zero (0), causes TCP/IP to randomly assign a free port number.
agentport
Specifies the required Tivoli Storage Manager Web client agent service port
number. The range of values is 1000 through 32767. If a value is not specified,
the default, zero (0), causes TCP/IP to randomly assign a free port number.
Examples
Options file:
webports 2123 2124
Command line:
-webports=2123,2124

Netstat is listening on port 1501, tcpport is 1500 in dsm.opt
Telnet to server via 1501 works 1500 doesn't.

We have always coded tcpport 1500 in client dsm.opt ?
Other 2008 servers configured same work.

Thanks,

Tim

 From the TSM server:
    telnet hla lla
Example:
    telnet servera 1501
If it hangs and eventually times out, you have a firewall problem, as
David mentions.  If it says "Connection Refused" or similar, the CAD is
not listening on that port.  If it connects, your plumbing is fine.

Some other things to check:
      Have you set tcpclientport?
      Does netstat show your port in LISTENING state?  netstat -an |
find /I "listen"
