VB code to TELNET a port and get status

[Srini]

I need to write a VB program that can telnet to a TCP port and get the
status, whether connection succeeded or failed. Is there any API for
doing this ?

Thanks.

I did something like this using a control (Think it was something like MS
comm control)

This allows you to create a connection to a specific host on a specific
port. I guess with suitabe error handling you could detect success (easy!)
or failure.

There's also the winsock API
