[Mono-list] Portscanner School Project...Probably using System.Net class

[Erik C]

I agree with you Zaphod....but since there is no
lowlevel packet support I was planning on just do it
using "the crude method"....I'm not trying to beat
nmap here, just make a simple scanner. My main concern
was that the class was mature enough to support the
project.

My offer to help still stands from my original
mail...thanks for the reply!

take care,
