Hello,

Nowadays, i am constructing an aplication in C#. And i have to obtain information about:
- opended and closed ports
- privileges of groups of users
- updates

i have tried it using WMI but i wasn't be able to reach any important thing.

I would thank you a lot if you can help me.

i would like that if someone of you could help me to obtain this information with any API or another way, because i don't know how i could do it. I don't know if you understand me that i want. Excuse me.

Luc Pattyn28-Jun-07 4:52

that is exactly how CodeProject works: you read some articles, study MSDN documentation,
google around, and try to implement what it is you need;
and then, only then, when you have a small problem we will be glad to help you.

i am according to you, but i have already tried it a lot of times, i have visited a lot of pages,and i have searched in a lot of places, but nothing. I have to send my work next week and i don't have a lot of time if i continue in this way, i don't know if you understand me. i have decidied to ask you because i see that i am not going to be able to finish and send my work if i don't do anything quickly.

but i understand you if you can't help me

OK, search for WMI on CodeProject, and read the first article you find. That will get
you started.

I have already used WMI and i obtained a lot of useful information, but i don't know, i don't find which is the table in which i can obtain these specific information which i have asked you.

Luc Pattyn28-Jun-07 6:00

My experience with WMI is limited, but:

This article[^] discusses many things, including user privileges.

There must be a way to list all available tables in WMI.

There recently have been articles on CodeProject about user privileges, TCP/IP ports,
.NET versions, and much more. Dont recall which of those were using WMI tho.

If you need specific help, you need to ask specific questions. From your initial post
it is unclear which you mean:
ports = serial ports ? USB ports ? TCP/IP ports ? what ?
updates = of what ? Windows ? .NET FrameWork ? Visual Studio ? Office ? Drivers ?

And whatever the assignment is, judging how extensive it is, and starting on time
are part of it.

Good luck.

Excuse me, i don't want to bother you. It's the first time i used this type of forums.

And i refered to TCP/IP ports, and updates windows.

Thank you.

I have to read HTML files in a project. I am using streamReader to do that but when i read the document I get all the tags etc with it.
Is there any way to only read the data (which gets displayed when u view the page in web browser) rather than the whole source.

It works fine but I have 1 more question...

Is is possible to preserve href's

I could have tried it my self but I don't know any thing about regular expressions so I have to rely on u.

I just commented this because I don't know what it is...

for (int count = 0; count < technicalStopWordArrayList.Count; count++)
{
result = result.Replace(technicalStopWordArrayList[count].ToString(), " ");
}

Web services have a timeout. The default is like 30 seconds. There is a property off of the webservice called timeout. Set it to a higher number and you will probably not get a timeout.

When you use the development environment I believe some of these time outs don't happen.

Hope that helps.
