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