Question

How do I write a simple PERL script to scan for open ports on a target machine

Answer 1

Here's a simple Perl script you can use to scan for open ports:

• IO::Socket is used to handle network connections in Perl.
• The for loop goes through ports 1 to 1000.
• For each port, it tries to connect using IO::Socket::INET->new.
• If it can connect, the port is open, and it prints a message.
