NAME

       pnscan - multi threaded port scanning tool

SYNOPSIS

       pnscan [ options]  [ <CIDR | host-range> <port-range>]

       pnscan [ options]  [ <port>]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the pnscan command.

       pnscan is a tool that can be used to survey TCP network services.

       When  used  with two command line arguments it will scan the indicated network/hosts and ports. When used
       without arguments or just one then it will read hostname/IP addresses from stdin  and  probe  those.  The
       single port/service argument is used as a default if no port is indicated on stdin

       For  example,  it can be used to survey the installed versions of SSH, FTP, SMTP, Web, IDENT and possibly
       other services.

       This program implements a multithreaded TCP port scanner.  More information  and  new  relaseses  may  be
       found at: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~pen/pnscan
