hello guys,
Have'nt been here for a long time.so, howz everybody doing?
OK, lets get into the topic.I would like to do some sort of communication between to PC's on Windows-NT environment.I know there should be some sort of service running on the other machine, right???I would like to have a very basic script in-ordet to test that I'm able to connect to sockets and listen or atleast some ideas would be fine.
I've read in the manual and understood something about sockets and written a small script.WHat does this do??The user inputs some text and submit it, it connects to the other machine(Via IP-address) and it return the string in reverse order.
what steps should i take, would be really greatful if somebody can drive me in the right direction.
Thanks!
