Repost – Getting IP address of a Remote machine

Al
Hi,
Please forgive me for the repost. I need to get the IP address of a remote
machine which has dynamic IP so I cannot set it in a configuration file. I
have the name of the computer and based on that I want to be able to get the
IP address.

The following code works fine on the Server (the machine I want to connect
too but it gives wrong IP address from other computers) Can anyone help.
IPAddress = System.Net.Dns. GetHostByName_
(aComputer name).AddressLi st(0).ToString( )

Thanks so much

I want to write a program that gets the leased IP address off of my DSL router and then tells a remote machine what that address is so that machine can find it. The remote machine on the web with a fixed IP will have a page with a link to a video camera that is located on a closed internal network. That network gateway is a DSL router and the camera is behind that proxy server. When the leased address changes, the program will report to...

Does anybody knows the solution if this problem? If we wrote the ASPX page and send the request to the remote browser the remote client browser returns the remote machine IP using by this machine on the remote LAN, but the remote router of this LAN substitutes the LAN address by the correct external, public one and we receive the correct public IP of the remote network. I want to get the same IP using the remote Windows Application, not...

Hi, Sorry to repost, but this is becoming aggravating, and causing me a lot of wasted time. I've got a reasonably large mixed C++ project, and after a number of builds (but not a constant number) linking (and sometimes compiling) becomes immensely slow, and task manager shows that link.exe (or cl.exe) is barely using any processor time, but an awful lot of RAM (around 150-200MB). I'm going to keep an eye on page faults since I can't...

Hi, I am using an asynchronous socket server to allow comms between multiple clients and my server. I know how to obtain the IPAddress of the client (network device) as shown below :- string sensorIPAddress = ((IPEndPoint)handler.RemoteEndPoint).Address.ToString(); but what I would like to obtain is the physical/MACID of the client.

I have an issue where I have a remote IP Address, and I need to discover the local network interface IP Address which is viewable to the remote IP Address (for UPnP document purposes).

Overview: 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,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...

Hello I'm a network technician in training and I need your help. I am currently learning how to create and manage the different types of VPNs and I have a question about LAN-to-LAN VPNs. The last exercise I practiced was to create a LAN-to-LAN VPN between two Pfsense firewalls, by using IPSEC protocols. I succeeded, with both firewalls in the same network. But I'm wondering if it's possible to do the same thing, with 2 Pfsense firewalls...
