Create A Program That Will Send Data Across Network To Another Computer?
Mar 23, 2011
I want to create a program that will send data across my network to another computer. The data will be taken and used as sort of a command for the computer to load a webpage, or whatever I decide to do with it. I was familiar with the winsock control in Vb6.
i have a task to create a TCP Server (a program that is listening on its network card interfaces for incoming data stream).I have search on the internet and i found that i can use two methods : Socket or TCPListener class.I have created an example for Socket class, but i wondering how could i test it? I need to check that if another computer in the network send some string data to the listener computer , then this message should be displayed.Here is the example from microsoft that i am using for TCP Server using Socket:
Public Shared Sub Main() ' Data buffer for incoming data. Dim data = nothingc[code]....
But it does not work because of the PORT setting.If in the TCP Server i have "Dim localEndPoint As New IPEndPoint(ipAddress, 0)" the client crashes, but if i change the port from any (0) to 11000 for example,the client works fine.Do you know why?
Later edit2:Maybe i should have started with this question:Which method is recommended for my scope?asynchronous or synchronous method ?
to do a program that can send a message in other computerthru LaN or Computer NetworkExample im in Server and i will send it is \PC-01here is the picture i design it but i don't know the code
I have created multiple forms in VB.NET that need to be sent out in emergency situations. For example, the Fire form will instruct employees that they need to evacuate the building, the Tornado form will instruct employees that they need to go to the basement, etc. I have the forms created where they will display over my own computer when I run the application. I have also figured out how to get the list of computers from Active Directory. Now I am stuck. How do I make the form display on another network computer? Does anyone know how to do this?
how to send a message to another computer in my companys network using visual studio 2008...I would like to be able to list all the computer names on the network and select certain ones and send them a message that would pop up on their screen
I have a problem I want to make a server and client where the server is password protected and will make the client display files/folders in a designated folder which will be in the server's current directory and the client will ask what IP and password to connect to and if the password is correct is allows the client to access the files/folders in that folder in C.D. of the server and the client can download any file within the folder by clicking a button, yet don't even know where to start.
im trying to create a simple program that send string data through winsock, there are hundresd of tutorials allover the web, but non of them seem to work! I am fairly new to visual basics but i undersatnd the consept of winsock and 'all that stuff'. [code]
Here is my idea so far: I have a bunch of computers connected in a local network. One of them is a MySQL server, one will have a vb.NET program wich will act as a "second server" and the rest will be different clients. 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:
I am busy with a VB2008 EXPRESS program that reads is data via a network cable. Saving the data on the same computer as my program is not a problem, but I must also make this data available to other users in the network and update their screens in real time. In other words I need a COPY of my running program on each networked computer when requested by the user in the network. I have looked at SQL, XML pages and inheritance. But I am confused, what is the best way???
I have this codes here whereby my objective is to develop a writing network applications of programming, a means of sending data to a message board(messaging system). My problem is I couldn't connect it to the server's IP address and port num to send a data through a message board. However I could only display at Form2 txtReceive. Text = HexConvert.Data_Asc_Hex(sData),
Whereby this code could only convert whatever data(txtSend) that is being typed in, could then convert hex decimal into a textbox(txtReceive). The final result that I would want to achieve is to be able to display the at the textbox(txtReceive) is the <"message protocol"> & <"hex message that is being typed"> & <"parity bit"> into the txtReceive box.
Form form 1, my codes are.... Imports System.Net.Sockets Imports System.IO Public Class Form1 Const portNo As Integer = 1234 Dim client As TcpClient [Code] .....
I have a .NET 2.0 *.dll that calls My.Computer.Network.Ping(). The *.dll is then run out of an *.exe via AppDomain.CreateDomain() and Invoke(). The problem is that this works just fine under Windows XP but under Windows 7, I get an exception saying that no network connection is available. I tried the Ping() call out of a small console application under Windows 7 and it works just fine.
I 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.
I need to copy a file from a local computer to a remote computer on the network, if i try to use File.Copy without logon i get the following error:"Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password."How do I provide user name and password for file copy?
How can I make a program so you click a button and select a File using a OpenFileDialog and click send on your computer and it will send the file to a different computer and then a SaveFileDialog will show asking where to save the file on the other computer. Oh ya I cant use WinSock or whatever becuase im using Windows Vista 64 Bit. I need it because I for some reason cant use printer sharing. It might be because im on A 64bit Vista Machine and I want to print a file off of a 32bit XP Home Machine.
How can I create a simple application to send timed controls to an external device?
What I need is to create a very simple application that sends control signals or voltages out to an external device connected via serial perhaps. The external device will in turn trigger some electromechanical devices. There needs to be 24 independent controls each with a simple command equivalent to on or off. What is important is being able to control the timings of the on and off on each control.[code]....
can anybody teach me how to do that(I'm newbie in network programming), to detect all the computer name's list in the network(LAN with(out) domain) and also the IP's list of the computers.
Im trying to shut down the other PC on my local network through VB.net.. But whenever I run it.. It always says " CANNOT CREATE ACTIVEX ".. How can i solved this problem? By the way im using Windows XP..
Dim strComputer Do strComputer = InputBox("Please enter the computer name you want to reboot", "Input")
I have been developing a calculator for complex math. (Much more complicated than +,-,/,*, and above your usual scientific calculator)Its works quite well .In past programs I have used "private functions". I know that you give them a value and it returns on back. But what if you dont want to recive or send value? My example for this is a function I am attempting to make called "Autopi".The idea of Autopi is that whenever a mathimatical operation is about to be performed textbox(s) are cheked to see if they contain pi. (3.14 or 3.141) If they test positive Autopi will continue pi to however many places have been specifyed in the program. (Currently 300 places just beacuse i can :) Before the Autopi function does this it chekes to see if variable "pi" = 1. If it does it proceeds if it doesent its job is done
How would I create a code that can be called apon to activate but not recive or send any information through the program.And just to clarify what I mean by that is it will read information out of a textbox and write into it. But it wont actualy recive anything or send anything back from where it was called apon.
I have a computer that takes in a barcode through a Visual Basic program on one computer and I want to be able to compare that barcode as a String to data on a different computer on the same network by ethernet connection where the data is stored in an Excel 2010 file (.xlsm) in Column A in a workbook called 'Data.xlsm'. Before the data is allowed to be saved or used further in the program on the first computer, I would like for the comparison to happen.
Some more details that you all may or may not need.
Computer 1 (where barcode is scanned): Windows 7, Office 2010
Computer 2 (where data file is stored): Windows XP, Office 2007
