Re: PERL to PHP socket help

Unless you *really* need the functionality of the socket functions, you could to this: <?php if(!$fp = fsockopen("65.255.558.22", 80, $errno, $errstr, 10)) { die("Unable to connect: $errno $errstr"); } else { // socket is open // do your thing fclose($fp); } ?> As an aside, it's unlikely that your SMTP port is port 80 at localhost! Much more likely to be the default SMTP port of 25. -Clay > From: "Rob Packer" <robert@nrc.net> > Organization: NRC > Reply-To: "Rob Packer" <robert@nrc.net> > Date: Wed, 19 Jun 2002 19:31:25 -0400 > To: php-general@lists.php.net > Subject: [PHP] PERL to PHP socket help > > Can anyone translate this from PERL to PHP (if it's not too much fuss)? > > $remote = IO::Socket::INET->new( > Proto => "tcp", > PeerAddr => "65.255.558.22", > PeerPort => "http(80)", > Timeout => "10", > ) || die ("Unable to connect to smtp > port at localhost"); > > > I've seen the socket functions in the manual but thought someone might be > able to clarify this a bit for me. > > Thanks for any efforts > > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php >
