Can you be more specific as to how you want to connect to a machine ? Is it a database connection you wish to establish ?

[Abhishek Sur]

Yes.. On every client request create a new thread and run the task in its own thread until it returns to its tread pool. Just like what IIS does for every requests. :)

No its not a database connection. it is a socket connection between the client and the server of the remote machine

can u be more specific im not getting any idea about it. you mean to say when client send or recieve a msg run a new thread and reconnect to the server

i have tried running threads in this format. but this also works only if button is clicked and only for 4 times but i wish 1 client to connect to the server when button is clicked and other client will connect and close for each minute. the code is:-

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++)
{
Thread thread = new Thread(new ParameterizedThreadStart(round));
thread.Start();
thread.Join();
Thread.Sleep(100);
}
}
private void round(object val)
{
System.Net.IPAddress myIP;
System.Net.IPEndPoint myServer;
Socket socket;
string ip = (string)val;

        try
        {
            myIP = System.Net.IPAddress.Parse(ip);
            myServer = new System.Net.IPEndPoint(myIP, Int32.Parse("20000"));
            socket=new Socket(AddressFamily.InterNetwork,SocketType.Stream ,ProtocolType.Tcp);
            socket.Connect(myServer);
            NetworkStream netStream=new NetworkStream(socket);
            Byte\[\] byteMessage=new Byte\[640\];
            string sendMessage="hello server";
            byteMessage=System.Text.Encoding.Default.GetBytes( sendMessage.ToCharArray());
            netStream.Write(byteMessage,0,byteMessage.Length);
            netStream.Flush();
            netStream.Close();
            socket.Close();
        }
        catch (Exception ee)
        {
            MessageBox.Show(ee.Message);
        }
    }
