Server - Client Ping???

[Gear]

I want to use a Ping from server to a client via TCP!

The Server should Ping all clients in my listbox to check if the clients are online!
if some clients are not responsing, i will use
case "noPing"
Listbox.removeItem (index)


need example!!!!!

the clients send data "PCNAME" and the server write this name into my listbox. but a name have to deleted if one client are not responsing!

Like(listbox)

PC1
PC2 <-not responsing after a time server remove this name!
PC3
PC4
PC5

name PC2 will be set back if this client app will be restartet and ping probably!!

It pretty simple . When a client Logs onto the server add the pcname to a 2 dimensional array containing the Name and winsock index . Then use the winsock close event to detect the winsock index that closed the connection .
