    thanks qednik, but what exactly is STDOUT? a string? a file? how do I check it's contents?

    detecting a machine on the network, and checking if a file exists

    I tried the system(dos_command), but it returns 0 if the command ran successful. So if I ping a machine using this command, it is always going to return 0 whether the machine "replied" or "request timed out".

    detecting a machine on the network, and checking if a file exists

    Thanks, but won't fopen(\\\\device\\...) open the file if it's there? I just want to check for it's existence.

    detecting a machine on the network, and checking if a file exists

    Does anyone know how to check if a machine on the network is on or off in C++? (just like performing the DOS command: C:\>PING machineName) Also, what is the most efficient way to find out if a file exists at a certain pathname? Any help is greatly appreciated.
