Copy Files From One Pc To Another Across The Internet?
Mar 15, 2012
I need to create an application (or find one application) that copies files from a computer to another, across the internet to create automatic backups. The target computer is a company server to which i have phisical access. The "source" computer(s) (several computers in several clients, that we - company, have also phisical acess). Solutions like teamviewer, PcAnywhere,... just don't fit because we already use them but they don't allow to create automatic backups. how can i copy files across the internet, using VB .NET, from one computer to another?
I have a backup class it copys every thing but the unmovable files witch in return when i test the dive that i just backed up all files to will not boot up missing win system32 config files??how would i add permission to my code??? or how do i over ride cant copy file because a nother process is useing it?
I have VB project and I tried to use PUBLISH feature.It seems to create nicely some kind of setup program, but the setup program does not ask where to copy files (it does not seem to copy filesto target machine "PROGRAM FILES".)Is this setup program somehow different from usual installers?
NOTE: I want that app files are installed to Hard disk( from USB stick source)Is the signing recommended or necessary? My App is pretty simple, its just using access DB + printer api, should I still sign?
i want to specify a folder and then have all files from "Temporary Internet Files" copied in to the specified location. I have specified both locations, and yet it fails. I think this could be caused by the fac that the "Temporary Internet Files" is located within a hidden file/s How should i go about copying the directory?
[URL]..it just comes up with an error. am i doing it right? and is there any way i can just download it to the same folder that my program is in no matter what computer its on?
how to copy files while the source files are variable?...I would say may source file size is 1mb and it continue increasing up to certain value let say 15mb.. i want to copy and append each bytes to complete the 15mb. I mean, copying while the source files are completing its size, that should it be. im using vb.net
I searched, but couldn't find any useful topics. I am needing to clear the temperary internet files in my program. I need to do this because I have a very long and elaborate process when you start usinging the program, and it may not function right if they are not cleared.
I try to delete my Temporary Internet Files and I do it by using the command "kill()", but I get an error:"No files found matching".What is the problem?
I am trying to make file transfer program in vb.net 2008 for big files eg. 10 GB.i was able to code simple socket program to transfer files with small size by using Sockets but if the file is large then "File.ReadAllBytes(ComboBox1.Text)" command will not work cause it use lot of memory & if the file is really big i.e. 10 GB it give not enough memory error, so i made a loop that sends data in small amounts, but this give me a larger file size with repeated data at end of the file.
For some reason this script doesn't work for me. It get's the proper folder becauseI used Wscript.Echo objFolderItem.Path to print the path but the files are not deleted.
I need to download files from internet without using FTP, here's my idea:To check version of the program and also download updates.So firstly, when the user enters the splash screen there is a timer which will check updates (downloadTimer) so then downloadTimer starts to download this txt file http://localhost/version.txt and then when its downloaded (and replaced the old one that was on the computer already) and then after that, read the file. If the version.txt contains version 1.0 then pass the check and splash screen closes, main form opens, else then msgbox ("Please Wait!" & vbcrlf & "Downloading updates") and then download updates with the same way from downloading version.txtOh! and also when the file is downloaded (version.txt) save it to "c:programMyApplicationversion" downloading the file without using FTP (if there isn't any other way i could use FTP).File reading could be made with an IO.FileStream thingy.So how do i do the download part?
I am making a program that gets files and folders off the internet.I want to make a window simular to a windows explorer window only these would get the files online.My problem is href tags for each one of the nodes and then get the files into the listview control. [code] I can get one node but after that I can't figure out how to get the other nodes to work.
i downloaded a couple of projects from the codebank about the listview and the treeview but when i unzip the zip folder,i found only the .dll and xml files present over there...
Developing an installer for an application, that runs based on parameters set in an XML file.
The initial install of the XML is in a template style (generic time for running app, generic settings), but via the Forms, I want to be able to have the user modify some of those parameters -say choosing time for the app to run- and then have the form write (Replace really) that data in the XML file.
Looking for some ideas as to how to approach this, as soon as I can catch on I will be able to do the rest on my own.
trying to write my own little disk cleanup utility (for a client) Can clean out windows/temp folder okay, but when it finds a file locked by a process it crashes - I have found out how to use error handlers etc to control the error but how can I unlock(?) the files in use before I try to delete them2) How can I clear cookes, history, temp internet files etc from within vb?
i have a audio program that will play some mp3 files from a folder. but the audio files together take up about 1 gb. it is possible to let my program download the files from the internet after it is installed on a computer. to a specific folder..?
I would like to develop a program (in VB2008) that can send files directly from one computer to another through the internet.
I figure there would be one program on the sending end and a separate on the receiving end. A server and client perhaps?
Anyway, I need to know how to send a file on the host machine in a simple method that is least likely to be blocked by anti-viruses and such. The fewer issues that result in a failed transfer, the better.
Also, note that my goal is to molulize this code (later) so it can be reused for multiple applications such as file sharing, gaming, etc.
I wrote an application that copies files from Folder(A) into Folder (B) First it checks if the files exists if yes it will copy them and it will over write the them in fodler (B) and is working great , but if I have a file in Folder(B)that is located in a subfolder the file inFolder (A) will not be copied to the new location.
belwo is the code to copy the files if they exist :[code..]
i want to copy all the files in a directory with an extension e.g .exe or maybe all them files *.*I searched on google and found this on MSDN But it doesn't work when i type *. or *.* or *.exe into the textbox and there is files in that folder.[code]
Can you not copy files from your resources? [code] I don't get any errors but I do get an exception saying it couldn't find the file. I want to do this other than supplying the directory that it is located on on my computer because I'm not sure it it will work on other peoples computers if i have the path of the file set as "C:UsersMike.Mike-PCDocumentsVisual Studio 2010ProjectsJava IDEJava IDEResourcesCompiler.bat".
