Have discovered that since I am opening a socket connection to the port (in this case port 4005) which is where the Sybase Database connector is listening, it appears that this error message is being thrown due to not passing the correct information.
Some background on what I am doing. Basically, I want to check specific ports for services running and log, page, and email when a service is found to not be running on a specific port.
Under Solaris 7, the Sybase Database connector service is started through inetd. I suspect that the error message I am recieving is due to not passing any information to the socket after its creation.
So, at this point in time, I am very interested in finding out what information you pass to connect to the database through the process of creating a socket connection to the database connector port.
Thanks in advance. I do appreciate all the assistance.
