Would it help if you change the assembly's permission to `full trust`? Or, if your C# code run the C++ unmanaged code?

For LAN, you don't really need to think much about security, for Internet, you do. And usually to access to the internet you need to go pass a firewall or proxy, so your application may need to...

You can consider to use web application instead, use PHP + MySQL.

Question: what if you restart the embedded server? Will it recover?

My guess is that the server has timeout issue. It may wait for TCP close for a long time, i.e. 6 hours. Are you developing the...

This is true. The port number is unique. Whenever the port number is in used, it can't be used by another process.


Fortunately, you can have more than one application connecting to a port...

There is no problem actually. Haha... I just want to catch some people who are interested in game programming. That's why I write something here.

Are you interested in game programming?

It seems that this forum is a very serious forum. No one excited about GAME.

If I experience this issue, I will try to send < 96 packets and see whether the server captures them all.

Why don't you write your code in Java?

If you use your own protocol for the client-server application, then you can add in a functionality in both client and server side to perform "ping" when the client is idle.

For example: TELNET...

Does anyone work on C# game programming?

Anyone knows whether it has a comparable performance to C++?

Maybe you could try to use Windows Filtering Platform (WFP), this is the link: http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/device/network/wfp.mspx

I never tried this before though.

Would you mind to show snippets of your code? I guess more people will be able to help you...

I am not really sure what you need. I believe that your code does what you want, to check only the LAN and wireless connection.

For the example, you can check any of these:

Some people here might be interested to help...

Hi there, what you want to do is actually making a "firewall-like" application. I read this article in codeproject (sometimes ago) that you might be interested:...

Hi, I guess you can easily obtain the IP address of the `myhostname` by using `ping` or `nslookup` command.

`ping` command:


xxxxxxxx:xxx xandertan$ ping www.codeguru.com
PING...

Now go for the DNS resolver,you can register your dynamic dns at http://www.dyndns.com/.

There are a couple of possible reason why you can't connect to your home computer:
