network frontpanel publishing

[jmhf]

Hello!!!

I am trying to start to design an application which can be controlled from different PC´s in a network.

The idea is to have a MASTER pc, which gives the permissions to access to the application to some other PC´s.

I do not wanna let the internet accesing; I just wanna access through a local network.

Can anybody give an idea to do that? Could you say me where can I find some information about?

This is the first time I try to do something related to a network.

Thanks in advance

I just finished building an application like this.

We built a local network (some computers had two ethernet cards so they could access the corporate network and/or the internet).

We communicated between PC's using the TCP/IP vi's.  Each PC was assigned a fixed Port Number so that they could only talk with the Master PC.

Is that the kind of thing you were thinking of?

Hi!!!

Thank you very much. That is just what I want. I am going to investigates these TCP subvi´s.

In my case, the master should give some permissions to the rest of the pc´s to let them to

access to the application.

Thanks in advance.

What I did for that was to make a cluster, flatten it to a string, and send the string via TCP/IP.  Then on the other side, I would reverse the process.  Permissions could be one element of the cluster.

Hi Matt!

Have I to define in any way the application to be published into other computers? I mean,

must I define any property of the VI to be published?

Could you give me an example of your application?

Thanks in advance
