Server status

[wap3]

Hi guys,

I was just wondering how hard would it be to create a server status script, which would check things such as ftp http and pop3 etc

Has anybody ever made one or got ay tutorial links ??

thanks

Hi chinni,


It will be on a linux server.

I am guessing you use sockets ? Is that right. I could do with a tutorial or an example if anyone has one.

well, I have'nt done anythings with sockets so far.
I also have a task to do using socket programming.

Anyways check out this thread (http://forums.devshed.com/t56898/s.html)

could always take one from http://www.hotscripts.com and take it apart to see how it woks

basicly your going to have to use fsockopen() to see if you can get a connection to the server. check out the PHP manual for info on this

Hey guys,

Thanks for the replies.

Since starting this thread I have created a script which checks the status of lots of things including:

pop3, smtp, http, https, cpanel, mysql, ftp etc

So its all sorted now.
