Re: Network lib

Sounds very specific requirement. Donno if some free (of cost) library available for this. May be there is some licensed one.

Nah, I think Curl is a bit too limited for the OP's purposes. Curl was built more for file transfer, not port scanning.

Can't think of much, however at least look for something that's C++ based, such as this wrapper for the C berkeley sockets:

Re: Network lib

thanks for all your replies guys. I looked into curl but it was application level and I require something a little low level.

I checked out the wrapper for berkeley sockets and i think i'll go with this or something like this...
