Comm between wen server and VB app

[mickers]

Hi,
I need to send pre-determined data between a computer on the Internet with a known IP address and a web server also with a known IP address. I need to initiate it in both directions.

Do you know of an easy way to do this in both directions? The web server will be running vb.asp.

Many thanks,

The web server will be easy, since it will be listening as is capable of sending as well. The program running on the other computer will be a little trickier, since you'll either have to make it listen for the web server to send it something, or it will have to periodically poll the web server to see if there is data available. Either way, the XMLHTTPRequest object (or whatever version of it you have) should do the trick for the communication part.
