Hi
Is there any intelligent way to similate windows function to show a map of
the entire network visible to an application??
My job is this...:
Picture a LAN/WLAN with 5 computers connected through a router. I need to
run an application which as its first task needs to map out which other
computers it can se in the network. Then it needs to 'ping' a certain port
on any given ip to se, if that computer is running this application. Then it
will start up a communication with each of these computers and the
particular program on that computer.
Short of inputting the ip's given out on each computer or running a specific
server application keeping track of this, is there a way to do this
intelligently without having to scan all possible ip's in the 192.168.x.x
pool?? This seems to me as being slow and extremely low-tech...
Code-sniplet would be greatly appreciated....
