Hello everyone. I have a Database program which uses MS Access. The time has come and I need to make it a client/server app. The idea behind the scheme is: Server holds the database, and one or multiple clients need to access it simultaneously.

I am planning to use SCTP for a embedded Linux project. Anybody has some comments on SCTP usage, mostly in one-to-many mode? Did it beat using a home-made UDP-based equivalent solution? I control the network environement and all devices involved, so compatibility is not an issue. ...
I'd like to fire some callback every time my network card sends new info about the available networks. I don't really mind if I need to poll the information myself either. I just don't want to rely on spawning "iwlist scan last" every second, but that's exactly the information I need (network name + channel + encryption type). Is there ...
Is there a way to tie a network connection to a PID (process ID) without forking to lsof or netstat? Currently lsof is being used to poll what connections belong which process ID. However lsof or netstat can be quite expensive on a busy host and would like to avoid having to fork to these tools. Is there someplace similar to /proc/$pi...

I have a windows service set to copy files from a local directory to a samba share. The service connects via a UNC path to the server (i.e. \remoteserver\shareddir). I have logged in as the user under which the service is running, and was able to both copy files and create files on the samba share, using the UNC path. However, when ru...
This is inspired by Does File.Copy() from a network share to another share on the same machine copy the file over the network? Is it possible, in .NET, for a client to get the server to copy a server file to a different location on the same server without round tripping the file via the client? Is there any in-build support for this ki...
Is there a native way to implement the features provided by the Genuine Channels (http://www.genuinechannels.com) component? Essentially, it provides the same features as the .net remoting component, with the only difference being .net remoting is unidirectional. I am looking for something where, as a client, I could connect to a server,...

First, a bit of background. There are many various comparison of distributed version control systems (DVCS) which compare size of repository, or benchmark speed of operations. I haven't found any that would benchmark network performance of various DVCS, and various protocols used... beside measuring speed of operations (commands) involvi...
