TCP Client Server - how to set timeout and bandwidth option

Hi Friends,
I am writing a simple TCP based client-server app and I would like the connection to be dropped after a certain time of inactivity and also I would like to control the connection's bandwidth. I would appreciate if someone can throw some pointers as to how this can be done.
I have tried this so far, for Timeout I am trying to do this:
sock.setSoTimeout(10000);But I think this is not the right way as this will disconnect the server from all client connections I guess. I think the better way would be to write a timer or something for each connection but I don't know how...
Any help?

sock.setSoTimeout(10000);But I think this is not the right way as this will disconnect the server from all client connections I guess.Wrong in a couple of ways.
1) That doesn`t disconnect anything. It causes a read that reaches that time in blocking to be unblocked and an exception (java.net.SocketTimeoutException) is thrown. The Socket is still just fine and can be used (all other things being equal). At any rate you then decide what you want to do after a timeout. One possibility is to close the socket because to you that timeout means it is abandoned.
2) setSoTimeout of ServerSocket applies to the accept* method. setSoTimeout of Socket applies to reads from that sockets input stream. Neither of those apply anything to all connections.
I think the better way would be to write a timer or something for each connection No setSoTimeout is correct. You will also then need to actually attempt to read something for that timeout exception to ever be thrown.
As far as the bandwidth question goes, you will need to define your goals better. Please do not just restate "control bandwidth" because that is not actually a very specific goal. Do you want to limnit the bandwidth used at one time (tricky) or do you want to limit the total bandwidth used. Either way requires some work but they are different things.

Establish a connection through RF modem's on client & server side & to set up PPP communication for data transfer

hi
can any1 over here help me out in how to establish connection between 2 RF modem's for data transfer , between client & server USing LABVIEW?
I want to establish a connection between 2 PC's through RF modem on client & server side & to set up PPP communication for data transfer.
(I have tried data transfer through RS-232 using TCP/IP whn the 2 PC's are connected over ethernet... which is working.
I also tried connecting loopback cable between 2 PC's COM port & geting data transfer using VIsa configure serial port & other visa functions ... which is working)
can u guide me how to establish connection between 2 RF modem's using LABview?
& how does the data transfer take place between 2 RF modems through RS-232?
is it using TCP/IP?
If you got any links to go abt this issue do send me related links .. or any examples .....
I am currently using Labview version 8.
Waiting in anticipation.. reply ASAP..
thanking you
Regards
Yogan..

Howdy yogan,
Maybe you could clarify a few things for me, and we'll see how we can help ya. TCP/IP protocol occurs through an ethernet connection; RS-232 communication occurs through an RS-232 serial connection, typically through a cable that has a DB9 connector on both ends. Do you mean that the RF modems in question have the option to communicate via RS-232 and/or via TCP/IP ethernet? Specific information like the manufacturer of your RF modems, the model number of your RF modems, and how you connect the modems to the PC would enable us to give you more efficient support.
You can check our Instrument Driver Network (IDNet) to see if a plug-and-play/IVI driver already exists for your RF modem. (You'll need to know its manufacturer and model number.) In the case that you do find an IDNet driver for your modem, you can use this KnowledgeBase article for instructions on how to use the driver.
Another excellent resource to consider is the NI Example Finder. You can access this within LabVIEW by navigating to Help»Find Examples and then searching for serial or TCP/IP examples.

TCP Client - Server Prog.

Hi All,
I have posted TCP client- server prog. I have trouble in client code. When i'm running the server code on some port and the running the client code on the same port, then client is sending message to server(in this case integers with space like 12 22 23) , the server is receiving the message and adding the sum and sending the sum to client, but when i'm trying to read the stream from server(i.e the sum), i'm getting nothing.........
please run the code and check.......u can understand well....
please reply me as soon as possible.

How To Ask Questions The Smart Way
Eric Steven Raymond
Rick Moen
Write in clear, grammatical, correctly-spelled language
We've found by experience that people who are careless and sloppy writers are usually also careless and sloppy at thinking and coding (often enough to bet on, anyway). Answering questions for careless and sloppy thinkers is not rewarding; we'd rather spend our time elsewhere.
So expressing your question clearly and well is important. If you can't be bothered to do that, we can't be bothered to pay attention. Spend the extra effort to polish your language. It doesn't have to be stiff or formal - in fact, hacker culture values informal, slangy and humorous language used with precision. But it has to be precise; there has to be some indication that you're thinking and paying attention.
Spell, punctuate, and capitalize correctly. Don't confuse "its" with "it's", "loose" with "lose", or "discrete" with "discreet". Don't TYPE IN ALL CAPS; this is read as shouting and considered rude. (All-smalls is only slightly less annoying, as it's difficult to read. Alan Cox can get away with it, but you can't.)
More generally, if you write like a semi-literate b o o b you will very likely be ignored. So don't use instant-messaging shortcuts. Spelling "you" as "u" makes you look like a semi-literate b o o b to save two entire keystrokes.

How to set-up and use FAMILY Sharing

Can someone please explain to me in detail how to set-up and use FAMILY Sharing, none of the information I have so far found in the documentation helps at all, in fact it puts you in a constant loop giving the same information over and over again
We have quite a few devices from ipads, iphones and ipods and I need to set-up Family Sharing.
We have our main Apple ID which is linked to our Payment method, I have now got my son a new iPad, I have created his Apple ID and set-up a link via FAMILY Sharing to our main Apple ID.
From what I read we should be able to share our purchased Apps between family members.
So I figured I would be able to get the Apps now via iTunes that are part of the FAMILY Sharing, however when I go into ITunes (latest version downloaded yesterday) I can only see the Home sharing menu item not FAMILY Sharing, so I cannot work out in Itunes how to get Apps that are FAMILY shared. So ok I will try and get Apps directly via the Ipad using the App Store. To test it is working I look for a known paid for App, I then go to download it and it is now asking me to pay for it again.
Can someone please explain to me in detail how FAMILY Sharing is supposed to work and how I get it to work please.
Thanks for your help
Greg

Hey GregWr,
Thanks for the question. The following resources provides some of the best information regarding Family Sharing. Included, you’ll find information on making sure the accounts are set to "Share my purchases”, as well as information on downloading Family Member purchases from the iTunes Purchased section.

Hello everyone,
Good morning....!!
I am new to SAP PM and to SCN as well.
I have a question on Service notification user status.
I have notification profile configured in SAP as below:
Status no      Status          Short text              Lower limit          Upper limit
5                  REGD          Registered                1                          70

Once you change the status to previous status, just save the order. Then again open the order & try to change the user status.
Just I made replica of your profile. I could able to change (even without saving the order).

How to set date and time on apple tv

how to set date and time on apple tv

Assuming this is not the first time you have used your Apple TV
    1.    You might try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    2.    Also try restarting the router.
    3.    If the problem persists, try a restore, you may want to try the previous procedures several times before doing this.
If this is a new Apple TV, it may also be that your network router is not allowing access to the timeserver, check that your router allows access over port 123.

How to set the JVM Startup Options?

Hi,
I want to know how to set the JVM Startup Options...
The idea is, I want to test how the remote clients can access an EJB that is running on a different machine... Remote client here means, I have a java client application that runs on one machine and that contacts an EJB thats running on a different machine... I posted this question in J2EE forum and I got this reply...
If you need to access EJB components that are residing in a remote system other than the system where the application client is being developed, set the values for the Java Virtual Machine startup options:
jvmarg value = "-Dorg.omg.CORBA.ORBInitialHost=${ORBhost}"
jvmarg value = "-Dorg.omg.CORBA.ORBInitialPort=${ORBport}"
Now how to set the JVM Startup Options? I know my server ORBHost Name and the ORBPort..
Anybody to help !!!
Thanks in advance,
Karthik

java -Dorg.omg.CORBA.ORBInitialHost=${ORBhost} -Dorg.omg.CORBA.ORBInitialPort=${ORBport} <the main class>
That should do it..

Jaxrpc client (how to set connection and read time out)

I have a jaxrpc client using a web service. how to set a connection or a readtime out on the client side so that I can terminatate the service if it does not respond on some time.

When we tried to send messages to [email protected] ,the debug log on MTA shows that if the first mail server(123.1.1.1) failed , the MTA tried to connect the second server(123.1.1.2) automatically. And it took about 3 minutes until the connection to the first server timed out.
The OS level timeout (tcp_ip_abort_cinterval on Solaris) is applicable to this situation. It is set to "180000" (3 minutes) by default e.g.
bash-3.00# ndd -get /dev/tcp tcp_ip_abort_cinterval
180000
Is there any way to shorten the default time out ?( I mean to connect the second server faster if the first one failed.)Try changing the OS level parameter.
If there is only a particular IP address causing the problem, you may want to make use the IP_ACCESS mapping table and the $I flag to skip over this IP address:

TCP client server sample

All,
This may not really be a LabWindows/CVI question but I'm really stuck on what should be easy to
solve. The brain trust here on the forums has always been helpful so I'll try to explain.
The project:
Get LabWindows/CVI code talking to a muRata SN8200 embedded WiFi module.
The setup:
(running Labwindows/CVI 2009)
Computer 1 -- (with a wireless NiC) running simple demo TCP server program provided by muRata.
Computer 2 -- USB connection (virtual COM port) with simple program (also provided by muRata) that talks to the SN8200 embedded WiFi module. This code along with the module creates a simple TCP client.
Whats working:
I can successfuly get the Computer 2 client connected to and talking to the Computer 1 server. (using the muRata supplied code)
I can also run the LabWindows/CVI sample code from (\CVI2009\samples\tcp), server on computer 1 & client on computer 2 and they talk with no problems.
(I'm using the same IP addresses and port numbers in all cases)
Whats NOT working:
Run the CVI server program on computer 1.
I cannot get the muRata client program to connect to the CVI server.
I also tried get the CVI client program to connect to the muRata server. No luck that way either. The CVI client sample program trys connect, and this function call:
ConnectToTCPServer (&g_hconversation, portNum, tempBuf, ClientTCPCB, NULL, 5000 );
returns with a timeout error code (-11).
What I need:
Some ideas on how to get this working.
Is there something unique about the LabWindows/CVI sample client/server demo code that would make them incompatible with the muRata code?
Can you think of some ways I can debug this further? I feel like I'm kind of running blind.
What else can I look at?
For those that have read this far, thanks much and any ideas or comments will be appreciated,
Kirk

Humphrey,
First,
I just figured out what the problem is:
When I was trying to use the CVI sample server I was entering the wrong port number.
The reason I entered the wrong port was because the hard-coded port number in the muRata demo code was displayed in hex as 0x9069. ( I converted this to decimal and entered it into the CVI sample server code) The correct port number was 0x6990. (upper and lower bytes swapped) Arrgh!
I found the problem by using the netstat command line utility to display the connections and noted that the port being used was not 0x9069. It is really a problem with the muRata eval kit demo code.
Second,
Humphrey you are right about the CVI sample code not handling all the muRata commands for the client end of the connection that communicates with the SN8200 module. For my test I was using the muRata code for that "end".
The server end is simple and the CVI sample is adequate and is now working.
Thank you to all who took the time to browse my questions,
Kirk
