What I'm talking about is if you went into the Control Panel 'Network Connections', right clicked on one and picked either enable or disable...
I built a .NET Remoting Client which works quite fine on the machine of single NIC, and lots of testing messages received via remoting event. But when additional NIC was added, the Client seemed to be able to connect the remoting Server, but the testing messages cannot arrive anymore. From debugging, the server end did trigger the even...
We are using MAC addresses to identify PCs as licensed to run software. (Don't care about MAC spoofing; licenses are hard to get :) PCs may have multiple Ethernet controllers (we also don't worry about the case where there isn't one; we haven't met such a machine in 5 years), and so there's a problem with reliably choosing a stable one. ...

Hello all, I would like to install a virtual NIC (like the Microsoft Loopback Adapter) which is accessible from the lan. Very similar in concept to what vmware player does (in the sense that its virtualised network adapter looks like it's physically plugged into the lan). Thankyou, Fidel p.s. I know it's possible to bind multiple IP ...
