Hello

I have a DVD Profiler running on a server A, all the time.
That way I can access remotely to the database at any time from an iOS for example

The problem is that sometimes, for some reason, DVD Profiler crashes...

Therefore, I need to have a script (on a server B) that checks that DVD Profiler is correctly running (on server A)

The idea is to connect on the remote port of DVD Profiler running on server A, but i'd like to just perform an handshake with DVD Profiler in order to check it effectively runs correctly
(and not just connect to the remote port)

Any idea on how to perform this simple handshake ?

Thanks !

Well nevermind,

I've sniffed the handshake between a DVD Profiler and an iPhone

And now my script sends the same handshake, and I always get back the same answer, just some uuids change.

So I check the format of those uuids and the handshake is checked enough

If you need to restart DVDP, you are aware of Startup Parameters?
