note 68709 added to function.socket-create

Please be aware that RAW sockets (as used for the ping example) are restricted to root accounts on *nix systems. Since web servers hardly ever run as root, they won't work on webpages. On Windows based servers it should work regardless. ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 207.224.222.229 (proxied: 10.0.0.113) ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.socket-create.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/68709 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68709/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68709/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68709/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68709/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68709/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68709/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/68709 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/68709 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
