Resized ImagePORTMAN- A small utility for Xoops to check and display server port status as follows:

HTTP port=80 Open/closed
FTP port=21 Open/closed
MySql port=3306 Open/closed
POP3 port=110 Open/closed
SMTP port=25 Open/closed
SSH port=22 Open/closed

OPERATION

The Server Status block will display icons for the above server port functions. (hover over icon to identify) Green UP arrows indicate ports open and online. Red DOWN arrors indicate port closed and offline. These change automatically when detected. If your site is down or you can't reach it, simply call http://yoursite.com/portman/ to display current status page outside of the site iframe. (that's why it's not a module)
