I am using vb2008. I am creating a port listener. When I test the listener I get an exception in the code as shown below.I send one record through ("Hello") . When it tries to read again I get the error. This read would result in EOF. When this happens, shouldn't i go to 0? Instead it keeps its previous value of 5 which is the number of characters in "Hello"

I am looking to make a SMTP (Port 25) listener to listen in and accept incoming mail, look at the message source, make changes if needed, and retransmit the message out another port. This iwll make it act like a sort-of intermediary service.how one would write a port listener in VB.net, that could listen in on the port, and display the message in a text box (the whole source, headers and all, since that's what the mail comes in as anyway).

I'm writing some VB2008 code to control four 7-seg LEDs I bought from Velleman. They came with some example code in VB 5.0, and with instructions telling me to input 5 bytes at a time in the format Chr$() & Chr$() & etc. for the rest of the 5 bytes. When I try to do this using VB2008, it rejects the $ sign, so I've tried it using the Chr() format, which VB2008 allows. However, it doesn't work. Is Chr() the new version of Chr$() or are they different entities? In sending data to the LEDs, I'm using LiveComPort.WriteLine() as my command. (My serial port is called LiveComPort) I also tried it with LiveComPort.Write() asthe command. I know that my serial port and the LEDs are working, because they respond to the demo program provided by Velleman.

I've been searching about how to list and remove or create all list of the ports forwarded on the current machine. So I can allow my app to create a port to allow the "chat". Wondering how this is possible. I saw many samples on net, tested most of them and none worked properly. Is there a possible way to edit ports with visual basic 08 or 11?

View 1 RepliesI'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 am trying to create a server to send clients text on request. I am using a tcp listener to accept clients then send each client to a thread in a threadpool which deals with each client's request then closes the client connection. It seems to work fine but I would like to know how it works. Using the listen loop below I cant help feeling I should be sending some values to the threaded sub. How does it know which client each thread is dealing with?

View 4 RepliesI'm another newbie with VB (2010) so please bear with me. I am attempting to make a method that is event driven by data threads on the Ethernet port. Simply put, the method is to wait until a data thread from a "Control By Web" 5-input device sends an "information update" data packet to the application, with the application then processing the information. This application is on a private, well controlled network, with no access to the internet. I have a method that is working right now reading data packets when invoked with a timer (see code below) but I really need it to be event driven.

I am trying to build a small window component, which has two buttons.
When I click on the Start button, my code needs to establish the connection to server and keep checking the status (this is infinite loop, I have a boolean global variable which is set to true and based on this loop will work).
When I click on stop button, it should stop checking (I will make global variable to false).
I have code to check my server status.
However, since it is kind of infinite loop, moment i click on start, window form is not taking any other actions, since the control not coming out of event listener of start button.
I have many scenarios like this kind of infinite loops.
How to resolve this, what kind of approch should i follow in vb.
I have an SMTP listener that accepts incoming connections and routes the message to a folder using FileStream. I have to add x-sender: email@address.com and x-receiver: email@address.com to the first two lines of the file so it can be put in a pickup folder for relay later. It seems as though this way of handling the incoming stream is corrupting the HTML in the email message body. Does anyone have a clue what I am doing wrong or a suggestion that would point me in the right direction regarding what I am missing?
View 7 RepliesI intend to write a .NET application that does logging and analytics to data using VS 2010. I want to link my application with an external non .NET application via intranet. This external application provides integration through URL triggers. When an event occurs it can send this event parameters to any application via HTTP/HTTPS POST or GET requests. It allows me to select the event parameters to be included in the HTTP request that will be sent as URL parameters. URL parameters consist of a name and a value, and are separated from the URL with a question mark (?).
So an example request can look like this: [URL] any dynamic elements in the URL are displayed in brackets (<>), and are replaced by the corresponding event used at run time.
Now what design method should I follow to create a component in my application to listen to the URL request and parse it's elements. Knowing that I want to protect my URL listener with a username and password.
OK this is my third thread on TCP problems and the first two I managed to figure out for myself within 10 mins of posting before anyone had a chance to reply so lets see if it works again - failing that if you have any advice I'd be most grateful.
I have a server app which should be sitting and listening for messages on one port (4000) and then processing requests and sending data back via another TCP client on a different port (4001). My code is based on someone else's example and it works fine sending and receiving the first message, however after the first message the listener seems to stop listening and never gets any further messages.
Am I misunderstanding how they work? After I get the first message do I need to close the listener and create a new one, or should the same listener keep working until I close it?

I create a small program witch is a tcp client.I sent a asqii string to a tcp device over ethernet thads acts like a server.As soon as the device recieves the input string it will respond back with response data. The problem is i am not getting any response data back from the divice. The lenght of the string is max. 30 characters.When a use WireShark i see the reponse, but VB read nothing.I have read many threads with explenations about server/client connections but no example of a client with a tcp listener built in.I think thad the stream read is to late after the send instruction.
