gnappi Posted March 8, 2006 Posted March 8, 2006 I need to detect the presence of a machine on my network every minute or so. At the command line I can simply ping the address, how can I do it in vb.net? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Gary Quote
Administrators PlausiblyDamp Posted March 8, 2006 Administrators Posted March 8, 2006 If you are using .Net 2.0 it already has a Ping class you can use. If you are using an older version then http://www.xtremedotnettalk.com/showthread.php?t=69870 might be worth a look.

I looked and can't find out if .net 2005 is required to run the 2.0 Framework? Quote
Cags Posted March 8, 2006 Posted March 8, 2006 Visual Studio 2003 cannot debug application made using the 2.0 Framework. It may help you that Visual Studio 2005 Enterprise Edition is currently free to download from the Microsoft website. Quote Anybody looking for a graduate programmer (Midlands, England)?
