TCP/IP and HL-7

[shannanl]

I have two machines in my network that communicate via TCP/IP using HL-7. One of the machines is a legacy machine and the company that supplies it charges a ton of money to write interfaces. I would like to somehow intercept the HL-7 messages coming from Legacy Machine to HL-7 machine (while still allowing them to go to the target machine). I have a need for these messages and do not want to pay for another interface to send the exact same data. I am the network administrator so I have permissions to all machines, switches, etc. I am also a vb programmer. Is there a way to do this?

I am also going to post this on the vb.net side.

Thanks,

Shannan
