I'm trying to set up a very simple php script on my site to show a list of who is currently logged into the teamspeak server running on a different host.<br /><br />To do this I need to open a connection to the teamspeak host, execute a command, parse the output, and display it on the site. I have the code to do all of that, but it always times out when opening the connection to the teamspeak server.<br /><br />Near as I can tell, TotalChoice has all outgoing connection capabilities blocked. Is that the deal? Specifically, anything like php's fsockopen() is blocked. Any acceptable way to work around that?<!--content-->

Where can I get a list of open ports to use on tch servers. I'm trying to do something similar.<br /><br />In the meantime I'll use port 80.<!--content-->

Again, the Forum Mods do not have server access so the only place you are going to get the answer is from the help desk.<br /><br />I don't think that information would be given in an open forum.<!--content-->

We do not allow user run programs to open up listening ports (ports allowing incoming connections) on the shared servers (and you'll find they are blocked). For that matter, we don't allow persistent user run programs (daemons). <br /><br />We also block certain outgoing ports for security reasons (i.e., if you want to try to open a connection to some non-standard port on a remote server, you'll likely be blocked). If you have a legitimate reason to require access to a non-standard remote port, that's when you can submit a help desk ticket and request that port to be allowed, and state the reason why.<br /><br />I'm not sure which category you fall into, but felt I would clarify for anyone reading this thread.<!--content-->
read the first post...He was just trying to scrape something from a server by using fsockopen... I would never consider running a daemon on a shared server.<br /><br />Arun Mathe already helped me out via help desk.<!--content-->
