Dave M | I am looking to find all DBISAM servers on a LAN and load into a list. Anything already
written that does this? Dave M |

Steve Gill | Hi Dave,

I'm not sure if this relates to what you're after but I use a modified version of the DBISAM database server which has an option that will do a UDP broadcast on a specific port (not the DBISAM ones). When activated (it can be turned on and off), it broadcasts the server's IP address and ports every 15 seconds, which are picked up by the client application on the network. Basically the client application automatically configures itself to connect to the server. HTH. Regards, SteveG |

Netlab by Alexader Danileiko does a scan of a local network and picks up any hosts listening on 12005 if you ask it to. I'm sure you could do the same in Delphi (if you know what ports DBISAM is using), perhaps using ICS? -- Chris (XP-Pro + Delphi 7 Architect + DBISAM 4.24 Build 1) |

I'd like to know how to do this with ICS. Seems like a nice little utility function to have. function DBISAMServersOnLAN(const PortNumber:Integer):TStringList; begin // other stuff needed here end; |

Jason Lee | It may not relate to what he is looking for, but I certainly would like
a feature exactly as you have described. Anything you can post?
