VS 2005 System.Net.WebClient Whats The Best Way To Get Text File From Unix?
Dec 12, 2009
I need to parse a Unix text file so, I am using System.Net.WebClient to ftp into a Unix server then using the .DownloadFile() method to get the text file, but its coming in with the Unix end line ""; so is there a way to convert that to windows format while doing the DownloadFile method? I do re-read it after and fix it, I am just looking for a better way.
Or is there an alternate such as instead of a DownloadFile, and the two other steps above can I just read it into an array right off the Unix server?? If so then what method would I use?

I need to make some system calls in my C# applications.Unfortunately, this behaves differently on Linux than on UNIX.Now I used to switch the Operating system at runtime like this
If Environment.OSVersion.Platform = System.PlatformID.Unix Then
' Linux/Unix '
ElseIf Environment.OSVersion.Platform = System.PlatformID.MacOSX Then

I was recently assigned to do some research on how to approach a project. Right now we have an old program written in tcl. From this tcl program ( running on VMS client computer), we are able to run unix commands to execute processes on a unix server. This is done via tcpip. Now, we are thinking of making upgrades to this system . We are wondering if this kind of thing was possible with Visual Basic. Are we able to run a VB program on windows computer to run UNIX commands on a server? If so, what issues might be brought up. If anyone has even the briefest guideline or tip on this,

I do the same thing with URLdownloadtoFile: IT WORKS.Wih the WEBCLIENT part I just DO NOT GET the Text file from the PHP/MYSQL server: I only get message "Invalid Username/Password or no list download permission: ||"
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
Dim urlStr1, urlStr2 As String
Dim fileToStoreStr, fileToStoreStr1, fileToStoreStr2 As String

What the Win32 API is? I have looked around but no where really outlines what it is. Is it basically a set of procedures, outlined by Microsoft for programmers in order to get services from the operating system? In essence is it the equivalent to making system calls abd and library calls in UNIX? And yes I now Windows makes library calls too.

I'm trying to filter submitted web sites by attempting to browse them while bouncing the request off of OpenDNS. If the page received is the OpenDNS page, I'll assume the page shoudld be blocked.
How might I accomplish this task using the System.Net.WebClient class?

Dim wc As New System.Net.WebClientGamerTag.Replace(" ", "+")wc.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential(Email, Password, "http://live.xbox.com/en-US/profile/profile.aspx?GamerTag=" & GamerTag)Dim fx As New System.IO.StreamReader(wc.OpenRead("http://live.xbox.com/en-US/profile/profile.aspx?GamerTag=Dark Slipstream" & GamerTag))Dim str As String = fx.ReadToEndfx.Close()
The above code will open a webclient, set the credentials (possible error?), create a stream of the entire page, and then load it into a string (str).I then scan through and look for what is needed (Gamerscore, Motto, Bio, etc)-in this case.This doesn't work however, it doesn't sign in.

Is it possible to send HTTP POST with some form data with System.Net.WebClient?If not, is there another library like WebClient that can do HTTP POST? I know I can use System.Net.HttpWebRequest, but I'm looking for something that is not as verbose.
Hopefully it will look like this:
Using client As New TheHTTPLib
client.FormData("parm1") = "somevalue"

I've been using an invisible WebBrowser control to submit a form on my server, but I'd like to use System.Net.WebClient() to accomplish this so I don't have the control hanging around on my form.I need to get the page, fill out the username and password fields, and click the submit button. This was done easily enough with the WebBrowser control, but I can't find any examples using System.Net.WebClient().

I have an application that currently stores PDF files (and others) inside the database as BLOBs. The trouble with this method is that I've now got SQL Server databases in excess of 200 GB! I've finally figured out a way to still enable full-text search without needing to store the PDF files as BLOBs (yay! Adobe's iFilter isn't great.), but I'm having trouble designing the method for a client to get access to the files stored on the server's file system.
I want to place the files in a restricted directory on the server, so I can't simply pass a UNC path to the client and let them open the file from there either in a browser or using Process.Start(filename). I understand how that would work, but if that directory has user access granted, all sorts of security holes open up, right?So, what I'm thinking about is a way to have a SQL Server account that has read/write access to/from the protected file system directory. That way (in my mind), the SQL Server can take a file as it's loaded in through the import client (as a series of byte chunks) and write the file to that area of the filesystem. Then, when a file is requested, the SQL Server can bulk load the file into a varbinary(max) field and do whatever I want with it.
1. How can SQL Server take a stream of bytes and write them to a specified location on its local file system? (This is assuming that I want the import utility to be able to be run on a client machine and not require it to be run on the server itself.)
2. Is there any way to stream a varbinary(max) file to a web page out of SQL? I'm using a lot of PDF files that will have Fast Web View enabled, so if I can stream the bytes to a web page, the user will be able to see the first few pages of the document while the rest is loading. I thought about having the SQL Server read (bulk load) the file from the protected area and write it to an unprotected area just long enough to point a web browser to that location, then wiping the file, but that brings me back to #1 above and would THEN require me to be able to issue a delete command from SQL.

A text file exists on my server machine which is constantly being updated (about once about 5 seconds). On my web page, I'd like a div to display this file live using jQuery inside MVC.
I have the jQuery timer working already, but the file isn't displaying. My plan was to get the jQuery to load a Controller Action every 5 seconds and have this action return a FilePathResult.
The script:
$(function () {
var streamer = $("div.wrapper div.streamer");
//===
[Code]....
LiveStreamPath contains the path to the text file. I was thinking of creating a StreamReader in the Action instead. What sorts of implementations can I use to get this file to stream?
