From dmagnuszewski at mandtbank.com Thu Sep 8 11:47:40 2005 From: dmagnuszewski at mandtbank.com (DANIEL MAGNUSZEWSKI) Date: Thu, 08 Sep 2005 14:47:40 -0400 Subject: [Buffalo-pm] Querying The Port Status... Message-ID: Mongers, I have been looking around the Internet and CPAN for help on this, and I'm not sure that I found exactly what I'm looking for. I need to be able to query a server and test if a specific port is up and listening for connections. Is there a way that I can "ping" the port? I checked out LWP::Socket ( http://search.cpan.org/~gaas/LWP-attic-1.00/lib/LWP/Socket.pm ) and it looks like it may do what I need to do. I'm thinking that by quickly connecting and disconnecting to a specific port, that it will tell me that it is up and listening. Is this a good way to go about this, or is there a better way to do it?! Thoughts?

In-Reply-To: Message-ID: LWP::Socket looks good. Net::Ping might also do what you want -- there's an example of trying a tcp connection on a given port in the synopsis. http://search.cpan.org/~bbb/Net-Ping-2.31/lib/Net/Ping.pm - Kevin On 9/8/05 2:47 PM, "DANIEL MAGNUSZEWSKI" wrote: > Mongers, > > I have been looking around the Internet and CPAN for help on this, and > I'm not sure that I found exactly what I'm looking for.
