Hi,
My web application is running on 5000 different machines. For example, if i have to know who are all the clients which are using my application, what would be my appoach?
Correct me if iam wrong, but I came up with an idea of installing a windows service on each of the client machines whichever are using my .net application. This way I can perform a check on all those machines having the windows service up & running.
At my server, I would like to know which all clients are running my application. I need to ping the IP's of the clients (which are stored in our database) and if a reply is there, i need to check if the windows service is running on that IP. All this should happen in an interface and then show me the results as such which all machines are active and which are inactive.
Iam unable to come to a conclusion as of how to achieve this task. Please help me out with this.

Wouldn't it be easier for you to write some code in the application that everyone is using, that 'calls home' or something? Like a small database entry with the login time, IP-address, logout time etc.?

I would have to agree here, "calling home" is much more likely to succeed. Just firewall settings alone would be much better off going "out" rather then "in"
It is probably not the most efficient method, but I would try putting some code in your Session_Start event, and writing it to a Sql server Table, or perhaps ApplicationStat e.

It is mainly with cookielib, but remember the problem also with other imports (e.g. urllib2 etc.).

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.

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,...
