Hi list,
anybody here to know about how to check for available machines running remote applications (esp. one e.g. "iCal") on the internal network?
The problem is, that there must be control if single machines run before trying to do any remote actions on them?

I think that "ping" is for that.
Of course You're right! but how to stop the ping when called from do shell script?
control + c is it in the terminal, but how to do under AS?

You can specify the number of ECHO_RESPONSE packets that ping sends by using the -c option. So, to send 10 pings:
ping -c 10 ipOrDNSname


I have some code somewhere for parsing the response. Let me know if you'd like me to dig it out.
