Client Details

[SatyaDY]

Hi all, I want to find the details of all the clients in my network. How I can do that?? I feel SNMP is having the limitation of enable that service in all the clients. Is there any other option left?? I am a developer in C++. Can any body suggest some API's or Links. Thanks in advance, Regards, Satya Prasad

What "details"? What "clients"? What "my network" (your CIDR/n subnet or "My Network" according to MS)? To perhaps point you in the right direction: Whatever information you want any single machine to provide you with, that machine must have a service/server to provide you with that information. Unless you specify what information you want, it's impossible to even give a remotely correct answer by anything but pure coincidence.

If you want to enumerate your network resources, there are some cool API calls you can make. The example is given in MSDN documentation. You could enumerate from your program all the printers, machines, etc. on the network.

Hi, Sorry I didn't put my question correctly. I am having a private network. I want to get the Client details like MAC, OS and others. I don't want to use SNMP. In that case how to do this?? Thanks :) Regards, Satya.
