Hi NG,

I've got one simple (newbie) question:
I want to check, whether a computer within a TCP/IP-network
is connected to the network and online. Manually I usally do that
with the ping command. But I want to do that with Borland Cpp-
Builder 5.0 without using voluminous components. Just simple
short cpp code.

Can someone post a little example?

Thanks in advance.

Oliver.
