Does anyone have any ideas on where I can find code examples on testing for open tcp ports using a www page?
The applications I work with require various ports to be open. Obviously if the port isn't open, the application doesn't work. Unfortunately the errors generated by the applications are not always clear that the problem is port related. I was hoping to create a port tester to verify if the required ports are open. I would prefer this route over a stand alone program as many of the end users are in financial centers and they aren't to keen on 3rd party port scanning software probing their network.
I know there are sites already in existence that do this (shields up, etc), but I was hoping for something less elaborate and to customize it for just the ports needed for my applications. I thank you for reviewing this post.
