Hi,

In my company we have 10 systems connected in a LAN.

I have to display a popup message in all 10 systems (ex:- if time is 12:00PM I have to show it is IT's lunch time in all
systems).

Using asp.net or C#, is this possible?

If possible can i get any solutions for this.

Solution 1

From what I know, you can't do this in ASP.Net because of its client-server nature. My best bet would be a windows application.

Create a windows application and create a setup for "click once" deployment.

Not in this case. Every user will need to install the service, which is not viable for an ASP.Net application.

Solution 3

Displaying a popup is easy - see ASP.NET Popup Control[^] for an example.
Doing it a certain time period over LAN is not that easy.
Using something like COMET may help you achieve some sort of a solution.

Solution 4

You would need the individual clients machines to poll a server for a centralised message.

That message could be controlled by a time function or input by an idividual.

Certainly it would have to be an app, otherwise you could do it via IM.

It would not be an ASP control though.

Solution 5

Its not in asp.net or c#, but could you use a simple NET SEND[^] command and create some scheduled jobs to run them?
