Pls help me guys. I end my work for one simple program. I need to check a servers status. I tried to use InetAdress.isReacheble and Socket. But sometimes if server on windows I get a server status false. After reading a lot of information, I realized that this is one of the bug of java enter link description here. But the sources are old. Is this problem still relevant?
I tried using code this comment enter link description here
private static boolean isReachable(String addr, int openPort, int timeOutMillis) {
try {
// Any Open port on other machine
// openPort = 22 - ssh, 80 or 443 - webserver, 25 - mailserver etc.
try (Socket soc = new Socket()) {
soc.connect(new InetSocketAddress(addr, openPort), timeOutMillis);
}
return true;
} catch (IOException ex) {
return false;
}
If server on Windows I use port RDP (3389).
But the customer does not like. He wants me to check the status through ICMP. Is this possible?
I found the app ICMP enter link description here. Tried to connect from the application library but nothing happened.
I will be grateful for any information!
InetAddress.isReacheble by default uses icmp enter link description here
Pls sorry for my stupid question

I am trying to create a communication interface between a python socket server and a Metatrader 5 Expert Advisor.
I've tried multiple approaches and tutorial's I found online for both sockets and websockets. All of these approaches yield the same problem.
Whenever I start a debug on live/historical data, I get a Socket creation error with code 4014. According to the error codes it is a "Function is not allowed for call" error.
Multiple sources recommended to allow web request from specified URL's. Ive done this as well for 127.0.0.1 and localhost. (Tools > options > Expert Advisors)
Why am I getting a function not allowed for call error, and how can this be fixed?
Expert code:
int socket=SocketCreate();
int OnInit()
{
if(SocketConnect(socket,"127.0.0.1",9090,1000))
{
Print("Connected to "," 127.0.0.1",":",9090);
}
else
{
Print(GetLastError());
}
return(INIT_SUCCEEDED);
}
void OnDeinit(const int reason)
{
SocketClose(socket);
}
void OnTick()
{
SocketClose(socket);
}
We had similar issue in the past and was resolved it by adding the hostname/IP to connect to to the list of allowed URLs in Tools->Options->Expert Advisor.
You can also use a MetaApi service to communicate with MetaTrader via developer-friendly SDKs and code your expert advisor in Javascript, Java or Python.
Hope this is useful to some degree.
I faced the same problem.
Works for me: to point exactly '127.0.0.1' (without upper commas) in address input field.
Also, check your firewall settings - it may block your ports.
The best regards.
I'm trying to receive email from Gmail. Occaisionly (approx 1 out of 5 times) I get a System.Net.Sockets.SocketException, error message:
A socket operation was attempted to an unreachable network [2a00:1450:4013:c01::6d]:993
The network address is not always the same, but varies slightly. This error does appears occaisonally on all the Gmail boxes I want to check, but does not appear on my Office 365 mailbox at all.
My app is an MVC 5 applications hosted by Microsoft Azure. I use the S22 Imap library
The relevant part of the code to retrieve the email is:
using S22.Imap;
ImapClient Client;
List<MailMessage> NewMessages;
try
{
Client = new ImapClient(tenant.ImapHostName,
tenant.ImapPortNumber,
tenant.ImapUserName,
tenant.ImapPassword,
AuthMethod.Login, tenant.UseSsl);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
return;
}
try
{
NewMessages = GetUnseenMessages(Client);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
}
I've disable IPv6 on my Azure webservice (disabled it on the adapter) but still this error comes back over and over again.
imap.gmail.com returns several IP addresses (three right now, but the number might vary depending on time and location). You're supposed to try all three. If one fails in the manner you see, you're supposed to try the next address, so your next step is to find out whether S22 does that, and if not, how you can make that happen.
I had the same problem as OP and did following to retry multiple IP addresses with S22.Imap.dll
var ips = Dns.GetHostAddresses("imap.gmail.com");
foreach(var ip in ips)
{
try
{
return new ImapClient(ip.ToString(), "993", Email, Password, AuthMethod.Login, true);
}
catch(SocketException e) //error means server is down, try other IP
{
//nothing, check next IP for connection
}
}
Because of shared hosting, my redis server on the target host does not run on a port, but on a very specific socket, which can be connected to via the socket file, only accessible to my user.
However, I have not found how I can specify connection via a socket in the node_redis and connect-redis packages, the ones I want to use.
Anyone know how to do it?
Update: My answer below is not really correct. It turns out that the solution in the issue I mention below actually still works. It's more of a coincidence, IMO, but you can do something like this, and it should work:
var redis = require('redis'),
client = redis.createClient('/tmp/redis.sock');
As you see from the code snippet below, this will get passed to net.createConnection which will connect to the unix socket /tmp/redis.sock.
Old answer:
There is a closed issue about this node_redis/issues/204. It seems, thought, that the underlying node.js net.createConnection API has since changed. It looks as though it would be a quite small fix in node_redis' exports.createClient function:
exports.createClient = function (port_arg, host_arg, options) {
var port = port_arg || default_port,
host = host_arg || default_host,
redis_client, net_client;
net_client = net.createConnection(port, host);
redis_client = new RedisClient(net_client, options);
redis_client.port = port;
redis_client.host = host;
return redis_client;
};
It seems as though net.createConnection will attempt to connect to a unix socket if it's called with one argument, that looks like a path. I suggest you implement a fix and send a pull request, since this seems like something worth supporting.
There is no longer a connect string...
var client = redis.createClient(9000); // Open a port on localhost
var client = redis.createClient('/tmp/redis.sock'); // Open a unix socket
var client = redis.createClient(9000, 'example.com');
This, and options are documented on the README.
I know the question isn't very well. Sorry my english.
I want to setup a (one instance of) FreeRadius server to listen to several ports (with a bunch of 'listen' sections) and then pass the that udp port as a parameter along with User-Name and User-Password to a script that I want to use to make the authentication.
The basic idea is make some kind of domain separation. Some Firewall use radius port 2000 to make authentication. Some other different firewall (with a different set of users) use radius port 2020, for example. At the end, all the request fall in the same script that has the knowledge of both set of users and use one or the other according to the given extra attribute (port number)
I know that is possible making a virtual server per 'domain'. but I prefer not to replicate configuration files. and i think is shorter to add a little 'listen' section for every domain I want.
I tried to add an atribute this way:
listen {
ipaddr = *
port = 0
type = auth
update control {
Login-TCP-Port = 1812
}
}
and tried to read it:
autorize {
if ("%{User-Name}" == "bob") {
update reply {
Reply-Message = "This is only %{Login-TCP-Port} an example."
}
update control {
Cleartext-Password := "bob"
}
ok
}
[...]
}
But don't work.
How can i make it right?
Is this posible?
Hope you can help me.
I'm answering myself. I found (looking a like further on google) that the Packet-Dst-Port attribute have the data that I want.
I get it from here (now that I found it, look pretty obvious :P)
I am working with a 3rd party device which opens a tcp port that only allows one connection at a time. If my app connects to the port, all other connections are denied.
I'd like to find an app that basically connects to this port, then allows others to connect to it on a different port.
Any data sent out of the device's port is then rebroadcast to any connected client.
I know how to write such an app, but it seems like it would be something someone else has already thought off and written it & shared, and I could avoid taking the time to write it.
basicaly code would be:
1) start a tcp socket server, binding to TO_PORT (clients connect to this)
2) connect as a client to DEVICE_IP:DEVICE_PORT
3) when data is read into a buffer from DEVICE_IP:DEVICE_PORT, the buffer content is resent to each connected client.
4) everything else that makes it a stable, working program.
This is for windows, and I'd prefer it not require a java install.
My google skills have failed me.
Anyone know of such an app?
Not a complete solution for you, but might be interesting, though
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/IP/serversocket.aspx
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/IP/UniversalTCPSocketClass.aspx
Guess I'll answer my own question.
I implemented the solution my self.
Key points to my solution:
A class named IPClient which wraps up a TcpClient instance, uses async model of calling TcpClient.BeginConnect, BeginRead, etc. It has a Timer used for reconnecting if it loses connection.
This is the class that connects to the device.
It's public interface would look something like this:
public class IPClient{
public event EventHandler<MyConnectedArgs> Connected;
public event EventHandler<MyDisconnectedArgs>Disconnected;
public event EventHandler<MyDataReceivedArgs> DataReceived;
public bool Connect(string address, int port){...}
public bool Disconnect() {...}
}
To open the port that would allow other clients to connect, I used this library: http://codeproject.com/KB/IP/BasicTcpServer.aspx and modified it a bit.
It's job was to open a port, accept connections, and do the following:
in the Connected handler, start the listening port
in the Disconnected handler, stop the listening port
in the DataReceived handler, broadcast the data to any connected clients.
I'll leave out the rest of the boring details, but say it wasn't "too hard", and eventually I just had to roll my own.
command line usage: myapp.exe remote_addr remote_port listen_port
psuedocode/main idea of my program main:
static int Main(string[] args){
//SetConsoleCtrlHandler(my callback re: ctrl+C,etc)
//get command line params
var ipClient = new IPClient();
var myprovider = MyTcpServiceProvider();
var server = new TcpServer(myProvider, listenPort);
ipClient.Connected += (sender, e) => server.Start();
ipClient.Disconnected += (sender,e) => server.Stop();
ipClient.DataReceived += (sender,e)=> provider.BroadcastToClients(e.Data);
ipClient.Connect(remoteAddress, remotePort);
//wait for Ctrl+C or program exit
//shutdown code,etc
return 0;
