Hello,
is there a simple way to detect whether the host machine of my c#
application is connected to a windows network or whether it is connected
peer-to-peer simply to one other machine (IP-adress unknown)?
My first try would be to find typical UDP broadcasts within a certain period
of time. If there are no such broadcast packages then I could assume that it
is a peer-to-peer connection otherwise it is a windows network.
But I guess this is not reliable, isn't it?
Any tipps or suggestions?
Thanks!

I wouldn't think that you would need to get that complicated about it. I
would just query network properties to see if I am part of a workgroup or
part of a domain. This way, I wouldn't have to worry about protocols
(TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, etc)
I would most likely use wmi to query this.

Hello,
I have a machine, which has two network cards, network card 1 and
network card 2, they are on different subnetworks.
The IP address of network card 1 is 192.0.0.1, the IP address of network
card 2 is 192.0.0.2.
The question is:
Can the SQL server accept the connections(TCP/IP protocol) from the two
network cards?

Hi all,
I developped an C# app which is using FileSystemWatcher. If a file is
created in a specific folder, it opens the file and does some processing.
This functionality works without problems in the following scenarios:
In a Winform App, pointing at a Local Folder
In a Winform App, pointing at a mapped network Folder
In a Winform App, pointing at a UNC network location
In a Windows Service pointing at a local Folder.

Given a backend on a network server and a frontend on a local computer, when is
data pulled across the network? For example, does Rst.Recordcount pull data
across the network? How about Rst.Findfirst? When a form or report opens, do
they pull all the data in the recordsource across the network?
Thank you for your help!
