VS 2008 Game Command Test Server (TCP)
Apr 12, 2009
if I could make a tcp server and client so he can restart a game server from a LAN connection. The game server is a test server for online playing games it allows users to test there created maps but after so many errors the program is told to close out the running server cause of errors. The problems are fixed just by restarting the server. I have the client working as far as i know (cant do a full test without a server). During the creation of the TCP client built within the server (to receive commands and send reply) ive used

I've got a game I would like to build, it will require a central game server where peoples data (game data :-)) will be sent to and shared with other players - how is the done. Is it remoting? TCP? something else - I need to study up on it but want to make sure I'm learning the right thing.

I am new to working with SQL databases (and databases in general) so I do not have a lot of experience with how queries work and how I can practice them. When I was first learning xml and XPath, I found XPath Visualizer incredibly helpful after someone on stack overflow mentioned it to me.Due to this, I am wondering if a similar tool exists for SQL databases?Basically a tool that will allow me to connect to a database,enter queries and see somehow what the results would be like.
I have looked online a bit, however I have found relatively few options in terms of any utility that would do what I want, and that looks reliable.I will ultimately be writing an application to interact with an SQL 2008 server in vb.net, however for now I am just experimenting so I will know what I am doing when I actually want to create my application.So far I have managed to connect to the database using an OLE DB connection, but I am now looking for a way to experiement with queries without just querying and figuring out a way to interpret the results in my program. Basically I want to be able to remove the programming aspect of things so I can experiment with queries without needing to question anything in my code that is unrelated to the specific query.

im wanting to make a game that will teach users about server security systems. By programing a game that will act like you are in the real field or in real life right now how malicious users would go about hacking a server that way you can secure your server in the future.
But what im having trouble with is getting the whole setup its basically going to be a text based game. on startup i have a warning message pop saying this software is not meant for illegal use and upon hitting ok the other software pops up with a logo and to the left is options
Shell, Hack Tools, Shop, E-Mail, CPU Now what i want to do is when the user clicks Shell a somewhat shell like system would pop up giving you base line stories to do. But how would i go about making the user commands for example if user typed in

So the main question here is how would i get the commands to work? And then lets say your first objective is to find a random .txt file somewhere in the server . User would have to type

Is there any way to detect if the DNS server is not responding for sure. That is because if I ping the server while my torrent downloads are in progress, I get a "Request timed out".

So I want to test one of my Functions in my Web Project, but it's not actually connected to anything in the project yet (someone else is working on that part). The Function takes in an "ID" field, goes off and does some queries and gets some data, performs some calculations on it, and then writes a bunch of lines to a FileStream and returns that stream. I pretty much just want to test it by having it write the file to my own computer locally, and working with that file directory after the Function completes.
So my question is mainly:
1) How do I call this Function just for testing purposes so I can test all the queries/calculations/File writes, etc without it being connected to another part of the application just yet.
2) How can I change the 'Return fs' for the FileStream to write to my own computer locally to view the file that has been written.

I have been trying to get a test 'developer use' authenticode certificate working on our server. We dont really want to pay for one until we have tested internally so we are using a test cert generated by tech-pro. So far i have:
- Installed certificate services sucessfully.
- Created a test certificate using tech-pro codesign.
- used signtool.exe wizard to sign the application.
- imported the test certifcate as a server root certificate.
All appears to have gone ok and without error but when i run the exe on a virtual VISTA machine logged onto the domain the program still prompts for the administrator to logon to elevate its priviliges. Is there another step im missing that requires me to specifically register the certificate directly on the virtual machine too? Or something else i need to do on the server to make that certificate valid for our domain?

MVC3, VB.NET, using EF. I am working on coding up a simple function to handle checking for a valid MySQL connection. If the connection fails the test it will use the secondary server connection. This is required because our hosting provider does not provide failover or redundant MySQL servers. The problem is I tried to use a simple try catch method in the HomeController. This fails early because the Entity Framework is looking the connection that was set up when I set it up... Is there anyway to control that connection dynamically?

I am trying to test a number of stored procedures through SQL Server Query Analyzer. But am stuck when I try to test stored procedures that contain Output parameters.
Code:

When I put the Select statement though in the 'usp_tbl_User_Add' stored procedure in works fine and gives me the correct values.

We have a WCF service hosted in IIS that currently calls a VB6 DLL to do part of its job. This works fine, but we can't deploy the service to a 64-bit target environment without configuring IIS to run it in a 32-bit worker process.I am currently investigating ways around that restriction. Porting the VB6 DLL to .NET is not possible for various reasons, so I created an ActiveX EXE wrapper around the DLL in VB6, so that the service can run in 64-bit and the VB6 parts in 32-bit.
When I tested the service I got this error:
Type: System.UnauthorizedAccessException
Message: Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {9AE7303B-D159-43F6-B1A5-52D297581820} failed due to the following error: 80070005.
After some Googling I found that this is due to either:
Calling an MS Office component
DCOM permissions not being configured
NTFS file permissions not allowing read/exec access to the IIS worker process identity (ASPNET in my environment)
Of these:
Definitely not applicable Also not applicable; I am not hosting the EXE in DCOM or COM+, just a simple COM out-of-process activation
This looks likely; however, I checked the permissions, and NTFS reports that the Users group (which ASPNET is a member of) does indeed have read/exec access to the file I tried calling the EXE from a unit test fixture, which is executed in my admin-level account rather than the IIS worker process account, and it worked fine, so the error is definitely something to do with permissions. I'm not sure what to do next.
UPDATE:The IIS virtual directory is configured for Anonymous+Windows access; the WCF service uses only Anonymous authentication, the Windows authentication is for the VS debugger. Task Manager reports that the aspnet_wp.exe process is definitely running in the ASPNET account.I explicitly granted Read and Execute access to the ASPNET and IUSR_<machine> accounts on all the COM exes and dlls involved. This made no difference.
I explicitly granted Local Launch and Local Activation access to the ASPNET and IUSR_<machine> accounts on the relevant interfaces in the DCOM configuration. This made no difference either.Keep trying to get this working somehow.Go the whole hog and host the EXE in COM+.Give up. Tell users that the WCF service must be configured to run in a 32-bit app pool on 64-bit Windows.

I'm developing an application that detects Source-based games running on the LAN. Following up on the specifications provided by Valve, I have it narrowed down to exactly what I want: making a UDP connection on port 27015, sending an A2S_INFO query (0xFFFFFFFF followed by "TSource Engine Query") and parsing the binary reply.
This is the code I'm working with:
Dim sIP As String = "192.168.0.154"
Dim nPort As Integer = 27015
Dim connectionMessage As String = "ÿÿÿÿTSource Engine Query" & Chr(0)

I have been searching for a good code example that will place a small server program on my server and then allow me to use a client on my pc that will tell the server program to run a batch file on the server.
I thought this would be simple... I am finding it not that easy.
We have a server that users need to execute a command on however we do not want them to have login rights to the server so this will allow them to execute the batch file without having to log in.
