Operating Systems BSD Ping remote sever, nc, telnet, whatever Post 302964035 by Peasant on Saturday 9th of January 2016 04:55:52 AM

Ping against server will work if firewall allows ICMP probes.

If a server service is listening on port N, a simple telnet IP port will tell you that.
Something like :
Code:
:~$ telnet www.unix.com 80
Trying 4.59.125.171...
Connected to www.unix.com.
Escape character is '^]'.

This tells me that 4.59.125.171 has a port 80 open are receiving requests.

For further (security Smilie) analysis nmap is the best tool.
Port Scanning is Not a Crime but acting on its results can be, especially on government and financial sites.

Peasant.

NAME
Wiki::Toolkit::Plugin::Ping - "ping" various services when nodes are written SYNOPSIS
use Wiki::Toolkit::Plugin::Ping; my $ping = Wiki::Toolkit::Plugin::Ping->new( node_to_url => 'http://mywiki/$node', services => { "geourl" => 'http://geourl.org/ping?p=$url' }, agent => "My Wiki ping agent", ); $wiki->register_pugin( plugin => $ping ); DESCRIPTION
A plug-in for Wiki::Toolkit sites, which will "ping" various external services when a node is written. A list of the services to ping, and where in their URLs to add the URL of the node, are supplied when the plugin is created. You need to tell it how to turn a node into a URL (node_to_url), and what services to ping (services). You can optionally pass a custom user-agent string AUTHOR
