TCPRecv() all IP addresses

[theguy0000]

is there any way to TCPRecv all messages sent to the computer from any IP address on a set port?

I would believe that you have to iterate each address, and create a socket on each.

[theguy0000]

that's the only way?

darn.

there must be a way to do this.

a client program, which will run on any computer, sends messages via tcp to the server program, on my computer, running 24/7.

isn't there any way for the server to recieve and interpret all recieved messages?

Wouldn't AutoIt Smith's Remote Server Beta server work?

As far as I can tell, the server can hold up to 100 connections (pending connections?) as is, each socket being part of an array. All you have to do is have the client, and connect it to the server.... I don't see why that wouldn't work.

You can use this and by editing MaxConnections you can get more then 100, and it allows $MaxConnections in the amount the can be concurrently connected.

Is it really the number of connections? Or is it actually pending connections as the helpfile says.

TCPListen ( IPAddr, port [, MaxPendingConnection] )

MaxPendingConnection: Maximum length of the queue of pending connections. By default the maximun reasonable value will be set.

That sure makes it sound like only one can be connected at a time, with up to 99 waiting to connect (for a total of 100).

ok from that code:

Func TCPStartServer($Port, $MaxConnect = 1)
    Local $Socket
    $Socket = TCPStartup()
    Select
        Case $Socket = 0
            SetError(@error)
            Return -1
    EndSelect
    $Socket = TCPListen(@IPAddress1, $Port, $MaxConnect)
    Select
        Case $Socket = -1
            SetError(@error)
            Return 0
    EndSelect
    SetError(0)
    Return $Socket
EndFunc;==>TCPStartServer

That means it is TCPListen()-ing to your own IP address right? How does that accomplish this?

I believe that would be listening ON your own IP address. It works, I use it.

[theguy0000]

hmm. ok, thanks.
