Application to TxRx UDP packets over LAN

Hi,

I am looking for some software that I can use to transfer and receive UDP packets over a LAN.

Initially I though about developing something myself but I got to thinking that maybe there is something out there on the net. As yet I have been unable to find something suitable.

Does anybody out there have any ideas about software on the net that could perform this action?

Many thanks in advance for help.

P.s Ideally with the receiving terminals software footprint being extremely small (effectively just a listener).

I dont know of any software which can do this, i'm sure theres a lot but you will have a hard time finding something that fits your needs, so if you have any programming knowledge you should create it yourself as it is only basic stuff.

I dont know what programming language is your preference but if its VB6 go for the Winsock Control, this is a great control which allows you to make connections/send/receive data via TCP or UDP, and its really easy to use, search for a tutorial or something theres loads.

If its VB.NET then i'm not sure but I think you can use the Winsock API which is bascially the same as the Winsock Control, only you access it through API instead of a seperate OCX (control) file.

A great site where you will find many examples is pscode.com I would guess that there is a working example of what you need on there so if your not interested it developing yourself you could just use one from there.

Sorry for the late reply. Just wanted to say thanks for replying to the post.
