Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I've found nothing on Google about
the issue.

I'm doing a portscan against an Oracle 11i Oracle Applications server.  The
output shows:

Starting nmap 3.81 ( http://www.insecure.org/nmap/ ) at 2005-10-14 14:05
EDT Interesting ports on oraappserver1.inside.net (172.10.10.86):
(The 1653 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: closed)
PORT      STATE SERVICE
22/tcp    open  ssh
111/tcp   open  rpcbind
113/tcp   open  auth
139/tcp   open  netbios-ssn
445/tcp   open  microsoft-ds
1666/tcp  open  netview-aix-6
5555/tcp  open  freeciv
6000/tcp  open  X11
9090/tcp  open  zeus-admin
12345/tcp open  NetBus
MAC Address: 00:0B:CD:9B:A2:98 (Compaq (HP))

Yet to connect to the box, the users open a browser and connect to
http://oraserver1.inside.net:8040 They can also connect with the same URL
but to ports 8020, and 8010.

There is no firewall on the box, or between the box and the users.
Why do these port not show up on nmap?

You may not have specified a port range to scan; in this case nmap scans only 
ports 1-1024 and those listed in the service files, as noted in the FM.
