Access remote computer name automatically

[farashi]

 Hi

Is it possible in labview to access the computer name which belong to a network? I want to use Datasocket to transfer my data to a Remote computer. so i have one computer as server and other one as client. now i want my server computer to recognize client computer's name automatically. Of course maybe in future i develope this network to have more than one client. 

Regards

Hi farashi,

The TCP Listen VI already returns the IP address of the client.  Is the IP address sufficient or do you need the computer name specifically?  Are you using OPC server with DataSocket?  Have you tried anything so far?
