One last question, do you know how or what method I would use to do this
via a php script? Everything I've tried fails. Like
Makeconnection.php
<?
$mysocket = pfsocketopen('my.server.com', '1234');
?>
--------------
testconenction.php
<?
fputs($mysocket, "VERSION\n");
echo fgets($mysocket, 255);
?>
if I call the makeconnection.php script and then call the testconnection
right after it fails with invalid file resource error.
