Hi anivij,

i´m not sure if there is an easier way, but one solution could be to take the remote adress from the "TCP Wait on listener" and search for it in the result of "netstat". You can get this result by using the "System Exec.vi" with the call of "netstat".

Hope this helps.

Are you trying to get the IP address from a hostname? If so, the following will do it:



The functions are in Data Communications -> Protocols -> TCP

Hi anvivij,

now i´m confused. "disconnected from TCP"??? In your first post you said something completely different. What do you want to do?

Hi anivij,

do you write client and server part? If yes, you can send the client ip to the server and store it there.

You need to provide a more clear explanation of what you're doing. These contradictory "wants" and snippets of information do not serve to paint a clear a picture of what you're trying to do and what you've actually written.

Hi anivij,

how do you get the names of the connected clients to the server currently? What did you have at the moment? Did you see the shipped Client Server Examples?
