    "Winsock"?

    First off...I program VB.NET in ASP.NET.
    I would like to perform a custom server query from my webpage. The site is a gaming related site and I would like to scan a server for players etc.
    I know there are components for this but I would like to make my own.

    I was thinking a.la. Winsock in good old ASP/VB.

    So to summerize: I want to make a VB DLL for my website (using the vbc.exe compiler) that is capable of connecting to a custom IPort and exchange data like the Winsock control i VB6.

    How do I do this?

    yes. You need to look up some info on System.Net.Sockets

    planet source code has plenty of examples and pre-made classes in the .NET section

    Thanks

    I figured it out
    Although I had to use UDP instead of TCP for my task...
