Actually Mazy, I am pretty happy with it so far, there are a lot of examples, just not quite sure why I can't get the above to work. I will figure it out eventually, hopefully sooner than later though. Smile | :)

The Request.UserAgent and Request.UserHostAddress should work fine.

Try creating a file called "test.aspx", and paste in the following:

<script language="vb" runat="server">
Sub Page_Load(Sender As Object, E As EventArgs)
	Response.Write(Request.UserAgent & "<br />")
	Response.Write(Request.UserHostAddress & "<br />")
End Sub
</script>

Load that page and see what happens. On my machine, the response is:

Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; Q312461; .NET CLR 1.0.3705)
127.0.0.1

Yeah, I actually got it last night, I was trying a little too damn hard thinking that I would need to do something like Response.Write(Request.ServerVariables("UserAgent")) when all I needed to do was drop the ServerVariables("") stuff. Thanks for the response. Smile | :)

I have found a place on the internet that can offer you ASP.NET support for FREE!

Check this out: http://www.brinkster.com/registration/default.asp

If you look at "General Solution" you can create a FREE account with ASP.NET support!

I have brinkster and it is painfully slow. But if it works for you go for it.

I've had a Brinkster website and it wasn't too bad.
They do advertise it as more of a demo/prototype/test environment than a production site.

Cheers,

I guess that that would explain the performance issues.

Do they let you have access to stuff that I can currently only do by going to the IIS Admin Tool, i.e. set up error pages, etc.?

ASP.NET support?

What server software is it? If it is IIS (Internet Information Services), it comes with NT, 2000, and XP Pro. All he has to do is install the .NET runtime and it should install it. I am not sure if PWS will support ASP.NET. If it is non MS software chances are it won't work.

Do you know any place where ASP.NET is supported?
I mean, where can I put my ASP.NET site? Does XOOM or Tripod support ASP.NET?
Do you know any place that do support it!?

MSDE and IIS

Is there any configuration to use MSDE and IIS? I can access the database through Web Matrix but I cannot get it to access through a page on IIS.

Shouldn't have anything to do with IIS. If the connection string is setup properly in your code you should be able to connect to the database.

Matt Newman6-Jul-02 12:36

This is my connection string

SqlConnection myConnection = new SqlConnection("server=MATT\nsDB;database=NSUsers;Trusted_Connection=yes");
SqlCommand myCommand = new SqlCommand("select * from Test", myConnection);

myConnection.Open();

MATT is the computer name (I also tried the IP address in it's place)
nsDB is the named instance of the SQL server
and Test is the table name. When I try to open the connection I get

SQL Server does not exist or access denied.

It gives me this stack trace:

[SqlException: SQL Server does not exist or access denied.]
   System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.Open() +761
   ASP.datacontrol_aspx.Page_Load(Object Src, EventArgs E) in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\dotnet\redo\user\datacontrol.aspx:14

Try adding user id and password to the connection string. I believe the problem is the connection is trying to be made using the ASP.NET account and useless you've added it a DB user it can't connect.
