send messages over a network

[applescript]

How would I send a message over a network using either the computer name or an IP address? I could do this in VB6, but it doesn't seem to work. If anyone knows of a tutorial or some code I could check out it would help a lot, thanks.

What kind of message do you want to send? There's code for a simple TCP application (which will work by either DNS name or TCP/IP address) at:

I basically want to send messages over a network using the computer name or the internet using the IP address. I could do this in VB6 using winsock controls, but it doesn't work in VB.net.
