VS 2008 Checking For The Active Network Connection (LAN / Wireless / Modem)
Jun 29, 2009I am using the code below to test whether the user is connected using either a wireless or LAN connection. i.e. that the cable is plugged in, or the wireless is switch off. The code works fine for this. However, if you can spot any potential problems with this or you know of a better way I would be interested to learn more.

View 5 RepliesChecks That The Connection To OPC Is Active And If Not?
May 7, 2010I am using a third party OPC library.I have a routine that basically checks that the connection to OPC is active and if not, waits 10 seconds and reinitializes by calling a .disconnect / .connect on the third party library's object.The OPC connection somewhere in its chain is using a com object that dislikes this behavior due to the object belonging to another thread.Ordinarily I would invoke a delegate to get the call back on the correct thread, however this base class does not implement ISSynchronizeInvoke.
Is there another way to make sure a a call to to an objects methods occur on the thread they were created on from within a system.timers.timer which is obviously running on another thread?Error message is: "The application called an interface that was Marshalled for a different thread. (RPC_E_WRONG_THREAD)"I know, kind of vague without a whole LOT of sample code, looking for pointers on where to even begin looking.
Web Service Active Connection Test
Feb 22, 2012What is the best way to check if a web service is up and active? I realize there are many different factors to this, but I would like to do something simple before sending data, like at the moment the proxy is constructed to see if the service is able to be connected. I am coding in vb.net.Is there even a best practice for this type of comm?
View 1 RepliesAsp.net - Using Web.Config Active Directory Connection String
Aug 17, 2011I have a connection string (which works fine) to connect to AD through my web application in my web.config. Traditionally, however, I've created a new connection to pull info. from the user after login like so:
Using adDirectory as New DirectoryEntry("LDAP://OU=myou,DC=mydc,DC=dc,DC=com")
Dim adTicketID as String = ticket.Name
myVar = "adDirectory.Children.Find("CN=" & adTicketID).Properties("myproperty").Value
End Using
It seems that I should instead use the connection from the web.config like so:
Using ADCS as New DirectoryEntry
Dim adTicketID as String = ticket.Name
myVar = "adDirectory.Children.Find("CN=" & adTicketID).Properties("myproperty").Value
End Using
Is this possible? How would I accomplish it so that I don't need to constantly create new directoryentries?

View 2 RepliesCheck Internet / Network Connection ?
Nov 19, 2011This is the work of one responder for the most part, and is not indicative of the quality of most of the posts.But you can judge that for yourself.
If you are writing a program that is used to monitor the status of your network, then this thread may not be of interest.
If you are an application programmer that uses network resources to accomplish your goal, i.e. you are using SMTP, FTP, HTTP, NNTP, NTP etc., and you think that you need to check for a connection first, then read on.Follow up to this.Before getting all geeky let's take a little detour...
Five days a week I get up, eat breakfast, check my email, forums, etc., take a shower, get dressed, and then drive to school.Many of you probably have a similar routine.What is interesting about that is not what we do, but what we dont do,because of our expectations and experience.Here is what I dont do.
I dont stick my finger in the electrical socket to see if there is electricity for the coffee maker and toaster.I dont fire up the command prompt and ping some host on the internet to see if I have connectivity.I dont check the battery, tires, water level, clutch fluid level, washer fluid level, etc.,before I drive off.
All of that is based on expectation and experience.So why would you write an application that pings the internet before it did something (SMTP, FTP, HTTP, NNTP, NTP etc)???? Is your experience or expectation that the network will be down?To illustrate and hopefully convince you that, like Oblio, it is pointless, create a new form with three buttons. In the following examples I use a WebRequest / WebResponse as my 'Something'.Here is what some think is a good approach, the classic ping-then-do, what I think you shouldn't do.[code]....What is wrong with this code is that all of the network IO is being done without a Try / Catch block.

Jul 15, 2011I can't see anything in the method list that lets you know when a connection drops (and since it's constantly checking, it seems that could have been in there, to raise a flag when it can't find the connection anymore...no?). Is there a way to know if the network connection drops? Is there a way to reconnect it? Is it just a matter of turning EnableRaisingEvents() off and back on to re-establish the link to the network share?

App Makes Live Calls To Our Network Over Wireless Connection
Nov 3, 2008I am currently improving an existing handheld application, this app makes live calls to our network over the wireless connection, if the wireless connection is not established I am displaying a holding screen to the user, this screen rechecks connection every three seconds.I want to put a button on this screen that closes down the application if the user does not want to wait any longer. At the moment I am using the application.exit command, however it continues to finish the first original thread (i.e. trying to process the dataset) before actually closing the application, I am looking for a way to kill the application there and then!

View 1 RepliesFile Modifiers Username Across Network Connection Impossible?
Apr 18, 2005I'm running into this problem when it comes to determining a network logged on username and i hope someone can help me out or atleast point me in the right direction.Situation:1 Windows 2003 server that is serving files through Active directory. No Dfs installed, just plain files sharing.1 or multiple clients that access the files, make modifications and creates or deletes files. For arguments sake let's say that the clients are Windows XP computer and the users are logged on to the local domain (AD).Currently available:When the client alters, creates or deletes a file i have a (VB.Net Windows Service) script that tells me that this is being done and stores a record in a database for this action being performed.Desire:I wan't to know the client's ip-address, computername or logged on username so that i can store this to. I have tried about 20 different scripts but all check the username on the server side and not the client. So now i either get back "SYSTEM" or "NTAUTHORITYSYSTEM" instead of the user's AD name.Below is the code i use to monitor the directory and or file changes.The "writeDBLog" is where i want to pass the username to write to the database.

A Network-related Or Instance-specific Error Occurred While Establishing A Connection To SQL Server?
Aug 23, 2011I am working on a project using VS2010 SQL2008 and I saw an ODD behaviour , First let me tell you that the app runs without any problem in my developing pc (Windows Xp sp3 32bit)But when I was trying the application in another pc (Windows 7 32bit)I got this exception: A network-related or instance-specific error occured while establishing a connection to SQL server.The server was not found or was not accessible.Verfiy that the instance name is correct and that SQl server is configured to allow remote connections.
Now what is weird in this exception; Is when the application reaches the DataAdpater.Fill(dataset) line I got this exception but when the app reaches the DataAdpter.Insert(....) It runs without any problem .
And what is more weird is that I noticed that the dataset that is used in the previous insert procedure can later be filled with dataAdapter.Fill(...) procedure which it was giving me an exception before .
I tried these things as a solution:
1)Checked SQlBrowser running..
2)No aliases to Sql server at all to remove...
3)remote area connection--OK
4)TCP and UDP port 1433,1434 exception in firewall
5)Unistalled my only antivirus Norton
6)Added Tcp/IP ports in Sql protocols
7)My connection String is : onnectionString="Data Source=ALISQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=PALMSDATABASE;Integrated Security=True"
8)Also tried using Sql Server authentication (user Id and password)
what is the difference between fill and insert? My app. runs smoothly on the original pc ,What should I do?

What I want to do is that the "second server" will send out some kind of message or network package to some of the clients in the network, and they will execute a code based on what message it is, or what kind of package it is. I'll give you a simple example:
