blocking tcp server ?

[zildjohn01]

hi, i am setting up a tcp server, and was wondering if there is a way to have the Listen() method block the calling thread, or to get a notification when a connection attempt is made.

Also, as a side note, is there a way to determine the source address of an attempted connection before accepting/denying it?

Thx in advance,
John

i don't understand exactly what you want but the metod is this :

private sub Form_Load
sckListen.LocalPort = 9999
sckListen.Listen
end sub
 
 
Private Sub sckListen_ConnectionRequest(ByVal requestID As Long)    
      sckListen.Close  
      sckListen.Accept requestID  
End Sub
