View 1 RepliesI am trying to access VB.Net exe on a client system through LAN.Its working fine for server with static IP address.In case I try to access it with server having dynamic IP address, It doesn't provide access(config file containing server name).
In Order to access that exe with dynamic IP I need to specify current IP address of server in config file.
How it's possible to access that with server name as it's not feasible to change IP address in config file on daily basis
i need to know what will it take for me to access, insert, update and delete data to a database on a remote SQL Server. I already made some configurations to the SQL Server 2005 that I want to access by following the steps coming from this link -> [URL]. But somehow I am still getting an error. My primary concern is "What connection string should I use on my client VB.NET application to connect to the remote SQL Server?" Since I will be connecting to the SQL Server via Internet and not by LAN, I am wondering which IP Address and Port am i going to put on the 'connection string'? How can i get my 'TRUE' Ip address? Or is there any other way to go through with this? It will be very helpful if you could share your insights and knowledge. Here's my sample connection string:

I'm allowing users to manage a distribution list stored in a database. Users are only allowed to enter emails that are @mydomain.com. A web based application then takes the distribution list and sends emails. I'd like to validate that the email is valid before sending an email from the application.
To send an email I'm using this code:
Dim SendTo As String = "ThisIsNotARealEmailAddress@mydomain.com"
Dim SentFrom As String = "me@mydomain.com"
Dim MessageBody As String = "blah blah blah"
[Code]....
Is there anyway to validate the email when the email address is added to the database, instead of a try catch block when sending the email?

I use this code to send an email through gmail account but the thing I want to do is, I want to check whether the given email and password exists or not and if it exists then pop out a text box with the body of the mail and type the text and then send it as a mail. But in the above code you have to log in and type body and when you send the mail , It verifies for the email and password while sending and if anything goes wrong says there is no such gmail account.but i want to check it whether the email and password exists or not, when the user enters the email and password at the beginning itself.So that he enters the right email to log on to compose a mail.Is there any way to check whether the given email and password is correct at the beginning only ?

View 1 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

I want to run a FTP url in explorer. (Not in IE) What i want is some how when the button clicked the URL should appear in the address bar of the windows explorer.
This is because the ftp I access should be accessed in that way (By typing the url in the address bar of..lets say ..mycomputer window.)
I don't knw whether both do the same thing. But when I do I manually I could access the FTP by typing the URL in address bar in mycomputer(I think it is windows explorer) but not by typing it in the address bar of IE.

View 14 RepliesI have an application I have developed which works great on individual PC's. However I've had some interest from a few customers that asked if I have a network version for site licencing.If my app did not save any data or write any reg entries, this might have been ok. But it does to the local computer. I also built in my own copy protection and trial function that stores data in the registry on the local computer.What would I need to do to enable my application to run on a server/network share, so that the only a serial number needed is for the server?
