Hi

I need to find out if theres a way I can look for IP's that are listening for a specific port on my local network.

For instance , I have a Server local ip 192.168.20 on this server i installed an application that is listening on port 9800

Now when i write a client app I dont know the specific IP of the server but I do know the port the server listens on namely 9800.

Is there a way I can retrieve this information at runtime ?
