How could I do this ? thanks, Antanas Vipartas Knock at the port door ;) Nah just kidding. you can try to connect via fsockopen. I hope that port gives something back you can read out. because every port allows connections if it's not blocked or firewalled. -- Smileys rule (cX.x)C --o(^_^o) Dance for me! ^(^_^)o (o^_^)o o(^_^)^ o(^_^o) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I hope that port gives something back you can read out. because every port allows connections if it's not blocked or firewalled. actually, it helps. I can sense if the socked is listened. But the program, listening on that port, senses the fsockopen connection which I don't want to be. Is there another way to sense if the socked is listened by some service? thanks Antanas Vipartas -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Jim Moseby solved the problem I didn't even known that I can exec *nix commands straight from php file. ?php $netstat_info = `netstat -l | grep 5514`; // notice back-tics echo $netstat; ? this gave me what I wanted.
