Newport goalkeeper Jordan Wright was first in action after eight minutes pulling off a superb double save to keep out Tyler Walton and pushing away top scorer Charlie Caton's follow-up.
The Exiles grew into the game with their best first-half chance after 35 minutes, Stanley goalkeeper Louie Moulden diving low to keep out Matty Jacob's strike.
After the break, it was a tight affair, going from end-to-end without either goalkeeper being overly tested.
Christian Doidge headed wide while Kieron Evans rifled over before Jacob's long-range hit in the 86th minute was pushed away by Moulden.
At the other end, Stefan Mols had an on-target effort blocked while neither Joe Anderson nor Donald Love could find the target with strikes.
