you must initlaize socket before creating socket
if (!AfxSocketInit())
{
AfxMessageBox(IDP_SOCKETS_INIT_FAILED);
return FALSE;
}
|
|
|
|
|
maybe you forgot to initialize the socket envirment with afxsockinit function.

I ran this application twice and the ping response
of the first ping appears on the second application.

Scene - 1: Use the executable to ping a dead host (ie. 129.133.156.100), 50 retries, start to ping, it should always receive a timeout message.Well, start a command window now, use windows ping to ping an active host (ie. 127.0.0.1), see what happend in WinPing window -- it got a reply, why?

WinPing have this bug because it don't test if a icmp packet received is an answer for it.
In other words, Windows give to WinPing all icmp packets are received(included answer pings for other winping instances), and in the RecvEchoReply functions, you must verify what packets are yours. One method is used to solve this, is save in the id field of icmp header the process id and compare the value of this in all icmp packets received.

I'm aware of these bugs, I'll get round to updating this article soon.

Thank you! But so sorry for the late reply!
I also realized this problem from Microsoft code sample, so, I
had found an other way to solve this problem - using MS ICMP APIs. Here is my code:

Hi,Sonu,
I'm trying to find your message in the forums, but I failed. So I reply your message here, sorry for the late reply.
To answer your question, one point I need to clarify is the codes I post can run 2 instances in one App, but for the code of Norm Almond, I encountered an error while 1 of 2 host is NOT active, the code will drop into a dead loop in "recvfrom" (RecvEchoReply).
I made a small changes for WinPing so that it can detect which packet it should response, the key is "ID" of ICMPHDR structure, while you send ICMP request, this member data should be filled in your own process(or Thread) ID.
1) in CPing::SendEchoRequest, replace the "nID++" with your own thread ID
echoReq.icmpHdr.ID = (USHORT)GetCurrentThreadId();
2) in "DWORD CPing::RecvEchoReply" detect your own packet:
for(;;)
{
// Receive the echo reply
nRet = recvfrom(s, // socket
(LPSTR)&echoReply, // buffer
sizeof(ECHOREPLY), // size of buffer
0, // flags
(LPSOCKADDR)lpsaFrom, // From address
&nAddrLen); // pointer to address len
if( echoReply.echoRequest.icmpHdr.ID == (USHORT)GetCurrentThreadId() ) break;
// If NOT equal, it's someone else packet
}
Hope it can answer your question, any question, please send me email.
Best Regards,
Hanney Wang

thanks for the code. It worked very well. I have send you an another email. Please let me know about that.
thanks

It seems not to be a good idea to put recvfrom in an infinite loop.
My solution:
(before calling WaitForEchoReply in CPing::Ping)
m_dwStart = GetTickCount();
m_dwStart is a private member of CPing.
(in the for(;;) loop)
if (GetTickCount() - m_dwStart > 1000)<br />
{<br />
break;<br />
}

Hi
I am system Administrator.we are supplying internet to customers.how can i control the bandwidth supply to users ,of varying subcribtion.
Now every customer is getting the full bandwidth regardless of his subcribtion.Please help in this matter.
can we control the bandwidth speed thru server programming like ASP or XML.

Please help me in finding the ip of the local host.
-C
|
|
|
|
|
127.0.0.1 
|
|
|
|
|
TRY:
void DiscoverLocalIP()
{
TCHAR szHostName[1024];
//first get the local host's name
int res = gethostname(szHostName , 1024);
if (res == 0)
{
//then get the host's information by its name
HOSTENT *phost = gethostbyname(szHostName);
if (phost)
{
//phost->h_addr_list records the host's IP array
for( int i = 0; phost->h_addr_list[i] != 0; i++ )
{
//here we get each of the host's IP which is in network byte order
ULONG ulIP = *(ULONG *)phost->h_addr_list[i];
}
}
}
}
Don't forget to initialize WinSock library before call these WinSock APIs.
BTW,127.0.0.1 is only the roll_back address.
Cheers

Dear Sir
How to get the ping result shown with current time and continuously get result at a time interval like 15 minutes?
Shown like this(15 minutes interval):
Reply from:123.456.12.34; bytes=32 time=1111ms TTL=123,at 12:00am,05/19/2002
Reply from:123.456.12.34; bytes=32 time=1222ms TTL=123,at 12:15am,05/19/2002
and so on.
Thanks a lot!!!!!

It's a bug, I know about it and when I get round to updating it I'll fix the code.

Hi Norm,
great class, but there's one simple but effective problem... Under Windows 2000 you can only send a ping as an administrator (and so does WinNT4 i guess...).
Under WinNT4.0, MSDN gives a workaround.
Any ideas for win2000 ????
thx,
Olli

I've just had an quick look, and found CPing class by P.J.Naughter - it uses IcmpSendEcho function for ping-ing. It does work on WinXP. But I think, that this function is not included on Windows 95/98/Me/NT.
|
|
|
|
|
i've tha same problem, i've noticed there's no way to work with setsockopt and sendto too under winNT4 without administrator accounts. All works fine by using administrator account, but it's not a solution.
Can someone tell me a trick to solve the problem or just a place to find more infos??
thanx D

I guess the thread is wrong anywhere. I test it on win98, and it does work!
