I agree. Why? The other concern is that php was never really meant to
be a fully self-sufficient programming language. Its a hypertext
pre-processor designed for the web. Maybe you are looking to get a
network monitor onto a web site so you can access it from anywhere? I
would still think that you would be better off handling the port
sensing function with a non-web language. Maybe you can just have php
read from a file the results of what the other language does.
That would be another artificial constraint. PHP is more than up to the
job of small-scale server monitoring. I know this because I use it to do
just that. I have a set of PHP scripts that monitor a number of services
on 6 servers and it works quite nicely. Granted it wouldn't scale
without major work but it does the job.

Out of pure curiosity... why? You need a tool to do a job, why put
artificial constraints on it.
