I have a program written in Python that checks a class B network (65536 hosts) for web servers. It does a simple TCP socket connect to port 80 and times out after a certain periods of time. The program is threaded and can do all of the hosts in about 15 minutes or so. I'd like to make it so that I can check for other open ports (instead of just port 80) and I'd like to thread the port checks as well.
Right now I'm just prototyping and the threaded hosts portion works very well for my needs. I'd just like to add a threaded ports check and wanted to know if anyone had done something similar in Python. Many thanks -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
