I have a server (server A) that has several public IP addresses. I am building a desktop application that will run on server A to fetch data from another server (server B) using the httpwebrequest class.
What I would like to do is be able to programatically direct the application to use a specific IP address from the one the server (A) has.
Is it possible to reload a form of the running application from one computer when I executed a function from my other computer with the same application? co'z I want to see the changes of data on my datagrid view?

View 4 RepliesI'm trying to use the DHCP API (using the references on pinvoke.net) to retrieve a computer's MAC address when given the IP address but I can't get the code to work. I've run all the C# code on pinvoke.net through the C#-to-VB converter but I'm stuck now.
Here's what I have so far. The value of res is always 5 (should be 0). Thing is, I can't find any documentation on what the return codes mean

Using any version of .NET how do you find out which zone a particular share is classified under. I am having a problem identifying if a share where my referenced dlls reside is in the "intranet zone" or "internet" zone relative to some user machine that is running my .NET application. I suspect this is a problem because I am having a problem accessing referenced dlls from a share on some machines but not others. How can I tell which zone .NET is classifying that share in so I can adjust permissions accordingly?

View 4 RepliesI am calling a function from a VB.NET webserver to a custom written unmanaged DLL.If we call this DLL via a webservice on a multi-core server we run into problems and it always crashes.If I reboot the server and make it only use a single-core, it always runs fine and never crashes.I know the DLL call is responsible for the crash as I have outputted debugging code just before and after the DLL call.I can force the processor affinity of the .NET code to 1 core but this doesn't apply to the unmanaged DLL.How can I force the unmanaged DLL to only run on a single core as I am sure this will solve the problem?
View 1 RepliesI am running a test program for VB.NET, and it will simply crunch a million numbers in for loop. I've linked a variable implying the progress of the for loop with the progress bar, but it seems that when I run the program, the progress bar does not update itself. The bar itself has only value 0-100 as input (as stated in the document) and I've tested it without using the for loop, and it works.

View 25 RepliesI have a text box labled QTY, which feeds the QTY column on a datatable. the table then is ran through a function that takes the data and converts it to a string which my production machine can read. My problem is this, and its probably really simple (these problems usually are) how to i force the user to use a specific type of input on the txtbox so they would have to put the QTY in the format of 01 02 03 etc etc, i have it set to default to 00 but i want to force the user to haver to input 2 chars.

View 5 RepliesI'm trying to develop a windows application where i can get connected to remote server and look for process state going in remote server.We have many remote servers where automatic installation of software going on. We have an xml file(installstatus.xml) where it tells us at what stage the installation is (Example : Inprogress , Completed, Failed.)
So our aim is to develop a windows application where i can get connected to that servers and look for their installation status(may be we can use installstatus.xml to look for installation status). Every time i connect to a server, the server information should get stored in XML file(i want to create a xml file where all the servers list i connect to should get stored)
The UI at left side should will have list of servers i can connect to. When i get connected to server, at right side of UI, i want to display the status of installation (In progress, failed , completed).

View 8 RepliesI am developing a computer application designed to monitor the network and CPU statistics on a computer remotely. The monitored computer would have my program installed and the monitoring computer would display, in a form, the information being sent from the remote client.The application does not send any information regarding packets, user names, passwords, etc. It is solely meant for monitoring CPU performance and Network resources remotely.
What would be the best method to send this information over to my host machine?I am programing in Visual Studio 2008 on windows XP. The client machine is also XP. I know this sounds a little shady, but it is required for my little business (http://www.iquorum.net) to monitor what and when something happens on our machines when I and my employees are away.

View 6 Repliesim in the process of using vb.net code to return the ip address of my machine its working sorta correctly i can get the right ip address if i change the addresslist.getvalue(0) from [0] to any where up to [5]this im guessing is an array of information in the network adapter or something im not real interested in the other information in the other values my problem is depending on weather i have ipv6 options enabled in my adapter settings the true(192.xxx.x.x) is in value(2) for on and value(3) for off also i tried it on another machine and it came back as value(5) of 12 my problem is i can display every value() that has information in it in a text box but i cant make the program find the right address to use(192.xxx.x.x) this code runs and produces a multiline textbox with up to 11 lines of data in it and the ip address is visible in the list of data
Dim myIPs As System.Net.IPHostEntry = Nothing
Dim ip As String
Dim h As System.Net.IPHostEntry = Nothing

View 1 RepliesI have written an application for a customer, and the application is run in various locations around the world. The company carefully controls the release of the software to the various buildings where it is being used, and because of this, I have made use of the "Check for updates" feature. The problem I am faced with, is that the folks using this software more often than not answers "NO" when prompted to download and install the latest version of the application. This is unacceptable and ultimately, we'll need to go in and have them manually install the software.
We don't publish updates to the software w/o meaning for them to be necessary, and I find it hard to believe that Microsoft doesn't recognize this sort of thing as being needed when they designed the update procedures. Alas, this seems to be the case.
