Hi, I am using VB.NET.
Beside I init a socket connection / HTTP to connect to the server, what other ways to connect to a remote system? What I mean is that on the server system i do not need to implement a socket server/HTTP server
regards,

There has to be something at the server end for you to communicate with. If you're using HTTP then presumably that will be the existing Web server.
i wanna ask another question about the client connecting to server ..
if i want connect the database in the local area network , what shoud i do with ADO ?
or i need to install some other software for it ???
i use MS access database
thankx for reply!
If you're connecting to a fully-fledged RDBMS then that IS the server. In the case of access though, it's just a data file that the Jet engine on your machine opens a copy of locally to work on. You simply create a connection string that has the appropriate path for the MDB file and let Jet do the rest. Just make sure you're using ADO.NET and not ADO.
