Hi. I'm using the Socket class in a network client application to make TCP connections. I create the socket, bind it to the local endpoint and use the Connect method to start the connection. When disconnecting, I use the following code: <SocketObject>.Shutdown(SocketShutdown.Both)...

It would be great if I could direct broadcast. However, there are some office applications as well as some games that broadcast to 255.255.255.255 by design and I can't change it. The strange thing now is this: WHY am I not able to add a route for 255.255.255.255/32 through 10.0.0.2? It would...

I think it is broadcast in this case, so the destination address would be 255.255.255.255/32, but as I said, Windows won't let me add a route for this address, although one exists: 255.255.255.255 255.255.255.255 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.1 is the LAN address: obviously Windows is routing...

Weel, I don't want to mess up with certificates and security, but just to have two simple LANs working together. I had ALREADY estabilished the tunnel, now I must overcome some routing issues. Multicast traffic is directed to 255.255.255.255, but Windows does not want me to add a route for this...

YES, I was finally able to figure it out. Since the RRAS server is a point-multipoint interface, I need to route through the next hop on the connection, not through the local interface. route add 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0 10.0.0.2 (on the VPN client - works fine) route add 192.168.2.0...

Please help me: this problem is driving me crazy. I have two subnets: 192.168.1.0 and 192.168.2.0 connected through a pubblic WAN. I successfully enstabilished a VPN tunnel between 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.2.1. Virtual addresses are the following: 192.168.1.1 10.0.0.1 VPN...

Hello everyone. My problem is the following: I have two LANs addressed the following way: Address: 1.50.117.0 1.29.95.0 Mask: 255.255.255.0 255.255.255.0 (don't worry about the non-standard LAN IPs: both LANs are part of a fiber-optic WAN connected to...

Too bad... I can't installa 2k or .NET server on my home workstation. Looks like a shame to me: XP is such a good system and this limitation has no reason to exist. Ok, never mind. Do you know of a third-party software that can accomplish multiple incoming connections of the same type? Thanks.

I successfully set up a VPN server with Windows XP SP1 built-in RAS and RRAS services. What I want now is to let multiple clients (up to three/four) to connect to my VPN server. The strange thing is that, when there is already a user connected, all other clients won't connect and are presented...

Through the MMC (Microsoft Managemente Console) I can start and stop services and change their startup type. However there seems to be no way I can individually configure a service's settings (say, the ports and number of connections provided by the RAS service). I tried searching in the MMC...

This problem is driving me mad: my Windows XP Pro machine works perfectly, except for this thing. I was trying to set up an incoming VPN connection (thing I have already done on a friend's PC), but I was unable to proceed because the Routing and Remote Access service (aka RRAS) does not start...

I had already tried using the System.Text.Encoding.ASCII class. The problem with that is that it converts the script to 7-bit (aka Standard) ASCII, and not to 8-bit (aka Extended) ASCII. For instance, standard alphanumerical characters are converted, but characters such as &quot;è&quot; or...

As you know, VB.NET strings are Unicode by default (2-byte, 16-bit characters). I need to send messages to a remote server and it strictly requires me to send single-byte ANSI strings. Is there a way in .NET to automatically convert the strings to ANSI or do I need to strip the even bytes out...

How can I tell Windows XP to skin my application's forms using its own skinning engine? I would like my application tu use the same control skins used in the Aqua interface. Thanks!

Hi. In Windows XP Pro, when I try to create an incoming connection, it says the Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) can't start. In the event log I find two entries: Source: Service Control Manager EventID: 7024 Desc: Routing and Remote Access service terminated. Service-specific error...

Hi. I was able to successfully run a VPN between two subnets. Both the VPN client and server run Windows XP Pro. Despite the fact that the VPN server can't browse the client's network, while the client can browse the server's network (but I think this is normal), everything works perfectly...

Hi everyone. Two months ago I had set up a 100mbps LAN between my desktop and a notebook, both with Windows XP Professional installed. At first it worked like a dream: I was able to configure the whole thing in half an hour. Desktop: IP 192.168.0.1, subnet 255.255.255.0 Notebook: IP...

I need to show a composite video coming through the video card on the screen with VB6. Please tell me where to start. Thanks.

Yes, it behaves the same for me. However, it eventually &quot;forgots&quot; the size.
