Hello,
I have a situation with my PC, where I have three network cards
installed.
I have a piece of hardware sending UDP messages every now and then.
I want to capture these messages. But I need to know which network
adapter they came in on. (for reasons, I can only talk to the
hardware using a certain network address on the physical card, so will
need to reconfigure the card programatically (which I can already
do). If only I knew what card the UDP message was coming in on).
What would be the simplist way of doing this? (other than the brute
force method of disabling the other two cards and listening for a
time, then repeating for other cards until I get a message back).
(Obviously, I can physically look at the back of my PC to see which
one, but I need to do this programatically out in the field. We don't
want the user to have to worry about the network settings, we want it
to be totally automatic).
I've looked at the UDPClient stuff, but it doesn't cut it, so assuming
I need to go back to sockets. (my knowledge of which is a bit
sketchy).
Any ideas?

Im still a bit of a newbie to help you farther but i think you may be able
to do it this way: http://www.xtremevbtalk.com/showthread.php?t=180606
and use the MAC address to see which one is open or not of the network card.
-Just a thought

Hi all,
I'd like to get, in a portable way, a list of all
network adapters on a local machine running some
python code.
socket.gethostname() does not seem enough, as it
only returns one name ; I'd like to get all
available IPs.

Hello All,
I am currently looking for writing an application that will act like
a
network bridge. Meaning, I have 2 network adapters and i want all
thing
from 1 adapter will pass directly to the other adapter (both ways).
Wandered
if anyone has written something like that, or can tell me where to
read about it, or maybe c# has a simple class for accesing network
adapters and doing those connectios.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
