SockIt is a straightforward utility that allows you to connect to a TCP socket. When connected, any data sent by the remote end is displayed in the log window, and you are then able to send data back in either ASCII form or as hex. SockIt is ideal for checking connectivity to a remote device, for testing a socket implementation and also for learning about the protocol behind a socket.
Sockit maintains a list of the hosts and ports used so they can be easily accessed again.
The screenshot above shows SockIt having connected to a remote machine, firstly on port 13 ('daytime') and then to port 19 ('chargen') and the corresponding output.
SockIt requires no setup procedure - just unzip somewhere and run !
