  4. tcping does a TCP connect to the given ip/port
  5. combination. The user can specify a timeout in seconds. This
  6. is useful in shell scripts running in firewalled
  7. environments. Often SYNs are just being dropped by
  8. firewalls, thus connection establishment will be retried
  9. several times (for minutes) until a TCP timeout is
  10. reached. With tcping it is possible to check first if the
  11. desired port is reachable and then start connection
  12. establishment.
