VS 2010 Socket And TCPClient ?
Jun 8, 2012
I am making a contact management program that works like a chat conversation. First, the client connects with his/her name and says: GIVE_INFO. Then, the server sends the client's info that it gets from a csv. Finally, when the user makes all desired changes, the client "tells" the server the info separated by commas and the server replaces the information in the old csv with the new info.So, the program worked for 2-3 times then all of a sudden when I made some changes it stopped working[code].......

I have a .Net program that has to run on a cluster of server 2008. To find out the right IP I resolve the dns by GetHostEntry(VarDefinedInfConfig).AddressList(0)
but when I am converting my old code (this code picks the wrong IP) dns.GetHostName().AddressList(0) => this returns a virtual IP and not the right one.So I changed my TcpListener to (dns is parameter from config)Dim listener As TcpListener = New TcpListener(New IPEndPoint(Net.Dns.GetHostEntry(dns).AddressList(0), 8001))
listener.Start()

I've been searching for a way to route requests from a tcpclient through a proxy server, but I cannot figure out a way to do so. Can somebody tell me a solution?

I am making a program to test whether or not a host is online, assuming that host has blocked methods such as ping and netstat -t etc....
So I decided to try and connect to it, but the thing is every limitation I have set doesn't work. The program locks up for a few seconds (which I don't want in the first place) and I cannot terminate the client after say, 100ms of trying to connect.
[code]...
I have tried client.ReceiveTimeout but that didn't speed up the process, still takes the same amount of time for the program to respond.How should I go about testing if the server is up now? Or is there a way where the program wont lock for a few seconds as it does with the TCP method.

I wrote a Socket Client which will send the Socket Server some data and get some response from Server. This process will be running once in every 2 seconds.
Now what I need to know is How we can identify the connection lost between Server and Client?
I need this to be implemented in the Client side. If there is no connection then Client should automatically close the connection. Once the connection with the server is available in the next attempt it should connect automatically.

i can connect socket well but i want to ask how can i determine that socket has received data i want to create sub or function that handles socket.receive byte the code i have is
Dim byteData(100) As Byte
Dim size As Integer = soc.Receive(byteData) 'receiving the data from socket and reading its size
For i As Integer = 0 To size
Console.Write(Convert.ToChar(byteData(i))) 'Convert.ToChar will convert the byte value into character
Next
i want to start this code each time when socket receives something?

I am successfuly connecting to an FTP server and have no problems with uploading / downloading files and initiating general file transfers. However, when attempting to list the directory I get a strange exception and it seemed to just start happening of its own accord.
Cannot access a disposed object. Object name: 'System.Net.Sockets.NetworkStream'. This is confusing! I am certainly not manually disposing any of the connection of stream reader objects, nor am I disposing anything else in this entire sub routine. On setting breakpoints, it seems that the array list is filled correctly but then the error fires when the status code is 226 despite me clearly specifying that the while loop should not run under these circumstances. (226 is equal to FtpStatusCode.ClosingData)

i'm creating an IRC server and I already have a few base classes complete like logging and Config. I was about to start with programming the socket class(es) when I realized that I have no idea how to make such a complicated socket system. I do not under any circumstance want to use any other code than my own since that would not help me learn sockets. I am familiar with a single connection socket system like most tutorials use.

I make a lot of programs that require an internet connection to download things from the web.At the very beginning, I used WebClient, as I didn't know Socket & how it worked.But now, I use Socket all the time, altough it's more lines of code. It seems to work faster then WebClient.I am interested if this is really true & why WebClient is slower (so is HttpWebRequest) then just a Socket.I've setup 2 threads which starts on the click of a button (WebClient thread starts first), the Socket beats the WebClient by just some milliseconds, but still.Each way has it's advantages & disadvantages, e.g.: if you use Socket, you need to write the header yourself & parse the response header.My question is, which one do you prefer & why ?Do you know why WebClient & HttpWebRequest are slower then Socket, as I assume, WebClient & HttpWebRequest both use tcp to download the things.

I've looked through a lot of snippets online and I see a lot of things similar to
Dim bytes(tcpClient.ReceiveBufferSize) As Byte
networkStream.Read(bytes, 0, CInt(tcpClient.ReceiveBufferSize))
but what I am unsure of when to call such a thing? How do I know when there is data to receive...in visual basic 6 with winsock, there was a specific routine which was called upon data arrival, but I see nothing of the sort for vbNet.

I am working on a chat client and server, and so far it works well, but when I close the client, the server throws an exception because it continues to try to do processes on the disconnected client. I have tried adding clientSocket.Close() in various places throughout the client and server with no luck. Does someone know how to add the disconnect code to either the server or client with this code?Server:
Imports System.Net.Sockets
Imports System.Text
Module Module1

So how does one turn SSL on in System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient with VB.NET code?
Turning it on in System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient is easy, you set the .EnableSsl property. I cannot find a corresponding property in TcpClient. It's probably buried somewhere.

During development, we usually use localhost as the hostname, like the following
Dim serverListener As New TcpClient("localhost", 8585)
I want the user to be able to enter their IP address via a TextBox instead, like
Dim serverListener As New TcpClient(textbox1.text, 8585)
However, this is not working for me.

I am creating an application that will be talking over the LAN (and eventually, WAN) which uses the Tcplistener and Tcpclient objects.Now, I have this working absolutely fine locally using the loopack address although when I change the IP of the listener to 0.0.0.0 (listening for all IPs) and the IP in the client application, to the IP of the server, it throws an exception when connecting. The client says something along the lines of the the server has rejected the incoming connection. So i disabled all firewalls temporarily but I still have the problem.I have ran netstat on the server which clearly shows that it is listening for an incoming connection on 0.0.0.0. [code]

I have an application in vb.net which will connect with an hardware device and test its functionality. The hardware device basically spits out data continuosly through Ethernet. That is it recieves some data via com ports and spits out the processed data via ethernet.So my application does both. Thats pretty much the entire app.My problem is i am using tcpclient sockets. Now when i connect a tcpclient to the device using
tcpclient.open(ip,port);
Immediately the device sends some data which comes and get stored in the clientsocket. Then i send a command to it ,only then i read the data from the clientsocket using
tcpclient.getstream().read()
at this time the entire data that is the one which flowed immediately when connected to the device and the one that i actually need after passing command is both acquired. This is undesirable. I need the data which i read only after sending the command. So i was wondering if there is any way to clear the tcpclient socket before we do a read. The manual doesnt show any such method.

I'm having a hard time getting the fundamentals down about these TCP Socket classes.
When you use TcpClient, you can set the IP Address or domain name to connect to the server end of the socket. I see examples that use "localhost" as the first parameter for TcpClient. Is this just a broadcast over the network to find the server that has a TcpListener listening on the dictated port of the second parameter of the TcpClient declaration? With any IP address for TcpClient (I realize that's an option, though), how does "localhost" find the TcpListener server?

I have been reading the following thread by perito which was resolved with a great deal of assistance from Athiest.[url]...
Using the sample code in this thread I have now created a Client and Server app which is successfully sending messages over a network between two machines.
Now that I am able to send simple text messages I would like to progress to my intended pratice of sending more complex information between the machines. I have already written a program which generates and stores data with a class which I use as a data type. I would like to be able to pass this class from one machine to another.

My tcp client has made a connection to the server script! Now that it has connected, how can it send a simple string? I do not know what any of the overloads for the .Client.Send method even mean, or how to use them. I already have a system set up on the server side to parse the string when it is received on the server side, but I have no idea how to send a simple string to it.
