Necesito saber si una máquina está encendida desde visual basic, algo así como hacerle un ping y ver si responde.
He usado la función IsDestinationReachable pero no me responde como debería.
Algun ejemplo detallado de ella o algun otro método?
He visto métodos de hacer ping en google pero son muy extensos para lo que yo quiero, no quiero hacer nada personal ni bonito, sólo saber si está encendida.
Saludos!!
Bueno, para hacer ping desde VB te recomiendo que bajes algun modulo o clase de ICMP (es muy sencillo de usar). Pero si lo que quieres es saber si un PC está encendido esa no es la mejor manera de saberlo.
Windows XP trae el Firewall de XP activado por defecto, bloquea las peticiones de eco ICMP (el ping). Para saber si un PC esta encendido tendrás que buscar agun otro método
Suerte ;)
No tengo problema por que rechacen solicitudes echo de icmp, es para tener controlados mis servidores linux desde un cliente windows, y los servidores tengo aceptadas las peticiones de protocolo icmp en local por iptables, así que por eso no tengo problemas, buscaré algún modulo así.
Gracias tio!
Saludos!!
Al final la mejor solución ha sido la del módulo, he usado este, por si a alguien le interesa:

Algo menos extenso, facil y que yo utilizo. Si tenes acceso a las maquinas (no lo mencionaste) podes hacerte un programa que use winsock y haciendole testeo de conexion. Evidente que te dara un error controlable y con un codigo fijo que puede servirte como dato para definir si la maquina esta o no conectada a red, con la sesion iniciada o encendida. Es muiy facil. El drama es que con clientes DHCP se hace un poco compleja la operacion pero igualmente solucionable.
