What sort of a URL would be appropriate to register an application so it can be found by another application in a suite elsewhere on the network - but not appear in standard netowkr browsers?

Thanks,

Anders.

Mandip,

I'd look at the Network Services Locator SDK to develop the type of solution which you are looking for. You can learn more about NSL at the following location

<http://developer.apple.com/techpubs/macos8/NetworkCommSvcs/NetworkingServicesLo/
networkingserloc.html>

there is also a piece of sample code you will find useful - NSLMiniBrowser

<http://developer.apple.com/samplecode/Sample_Code/Networking/NSLMiniBrowser.

The sample demonstrates the generic use of NSL, however, there is a section on registering and finding network visible entities.

Description:

Under Mac OS 9, we used to use the NBP to register a unique name/reference
to a machine to make sure that only n number of unique license of our
software was running on a machine connected to an AppleTalk network (if
someone else tried running the same copy of the software with the same
serial number it will not run).

Problem:

Under Mac OS X, AppleTalk is an option that can be turned off/on and
furthermore networking is more based on TCP/IP and NBP is not
supported.

What I am looking for:

I'm looking for a a substitute of NBP under X that will enable me to do the
same thing under Mac OS X except that it has to cover both AppleTalk and
TCP/IP using Open Transport (my app is a Carbon CFM App). I basically want
to just pass a string to some code piece/library. Which then registers the
app name.
