hi,
i am trying to connect to a remote machine to find out if anyone's logged in
to it using wmi's ManagementObjectSearcher object. I am successful in
establishing the connection and getting the information i need from machines
that are up and running. However, when i try to access a machine that is off
or not accessible, the get command runs for almost 30 seconds and then tells
me that the RPC server is not available. This is expcted and understandable.
What i would like to figure out is how to automatically kill the connection
attempt after a determined amount of time. For example, i would like to try
to connect, but if it has been more than 5 seconds, then the conection should
fail and the program should move on.
Can someone provide me wotu some information as to how to do this?
Thank you!
