Based upon the second example on http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.sockets.php : echo "<h2>TCP/IP Connection</h2>\n"; /* Get the service for TCP-Port 25. */ $service_port = getservbyport (25, 'tcp'); /* Get the IP address for the target host. */ $address = gethostbyname ('www.example.com'); /* Create a TCP/IP socket. */ $socket = socket_create (AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); if ($socket < 0) { echo "socket_create() failed: reason: " . socket_strerror ($socket) . "\n"; } else { echo "OK.\n"; } echo "Attempting to connect to '$address' on port '$service_port'..."; $result = socket_connect ($socket, $address, $service_port); if ($result < 0) { echo "socket_connect() failed.\nReason: ($result) " . socket_strerror($result) . "\n"; } else { echo "OK.\n"; } johannes -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
