Transmit data using dynamic ip

[jeyanthi]

Hi,

i need some guidance .. i need to transmit data from my computer to a server using a dynamic ip. can anyone help me how this thing can be done

You'll need to be more specific. What kind of data? Is the server running some LabVIEW code? Have you looked at the TCP/IP examples that ship with LabVIEW?

Why would a server have a dynamic IP?

Hi  smercurio_fc ,

Im sorry making things so confusing, is it possible to send data (text) from a computer which is using dynamic ip to 2 different servers. I have try using TCP Communicator its work. But i tried with both fix ip's. if i have dynamic ip..how possible i can transmit the message from the server to computer that message been received.

Yup i want this module in labview 8.0, i just need some guidelines..currently i havent started to the module yet.

You should be able to use the computer name rather than its IP address.  Assuming that the computer name can be resolved, it should work just as well as the IP address.  Try doing a ping by computer name in a command prompt window.  Also try doing a ping -a by IP address and see if it returns the computer name.

I agree with raven

There is a function called "String To IP" and "IP To String" and using the combination of these you can get the IP of the PC by providing the Name of the PC.

[Guruthilak]

if you just search ni.com you will find lots of resourced regarding this. However as a try go to tools->webservicing tool to launch the same. now select the vi which you want to publish (follow the steps)

Your question is meaningless. Send what data? Are you trying to create a LabVIEW web browser client? Is there a web service that you want to access on abc.com? 

Please provide some substantive comments as to exactly what you are trying to do.
