>Does anyone know how to detect the active SQL Servers in a domain? In SQL Server you can show the active servers in the dialog used for registering server groups so there must be an API call somewhere. TIA
You might look into using WNetOpenEnum() and WNetEnumResource() - I haven't tried finding SQL Server instances with it, so I don't know what would be involved in isaolating them in the list of all available shared resources on a given network.
