Test Network Services with C#?

[jkersch]

hi there, i´m figuring out what´s the best way to check network services with c#? i want to check if RDP and ICA Services are up on my servers. i tried to just open a TcpClient and if it throws an exception on connect() i guessed it´s unavailable. But thos didn´t work for me. it always throwed the exception though the service was online. increasing timeout-values didn´t work either. i also tried connecting via System.Net.Socket but i gut the same results. any ideas how i can check network services with c#? best regards from .at
