Hi

1. Is it possible to detect if a PDA is connected (wi-fi) to a peer-to-peer LAN (by IP or Device
name)?
If yes, how? maybe by a ping? is there a programmatic ping method? 2.How to detect the IP of a PDA from an App running on the same PDA? In a peer-to-peer
LAN, is the PDA IP static like for the workstations? Basically, what I'd like to do is to retrieve the IP of the PDA when the user on the PDA makes a change to a data file on the desktop server (via sockets) I want to store the IP of the PDA (if static) or its Device name (which I know I can retrieve from the PDA registry) if the IP keeps changing.
If necessary, I need to see in a subsequent moment if the PDA is still connected to the LAN
(with a ping or other method).
Thanks for any help.
