    I really need to know about networking.

    How to >>>

    Populate a listbox with all of the names of the computers on the server & their logged in users.

    Send a packet to another program (that I have also written) on another networked computer.

    How to send packets of data to multiple other computers (cannot tell how many there are).

    How to convert music data into string kinda data, stuff I can send over the net.


    I have found NO answers ANYWHERE. YES I am desperate.
    Is there a way to do this (c'mon, there has to be...!)

    Thanks All

    Okay.. I've got the first one.

    I know that I do the others with winsock, still need help on the last one and this new one.

    (non-code)

    This is the way my 'network radio' is currently set up:


    DJ --WINSOCK-> Server = broadcasting <-WINSOCK-- Player
    Computer ----------> Computer = sound data <---------- Computer

    Is this the correct way to do this?

    In words:
    The 'DJ' computer creates a playlist, and starts sending the song data to the server computer on port 50451. Then the server broadcasts it to ITSELF on port 50452 (this port is free i am guessing), and then the other computers take the sound data from port 50452 on the server computer, and play it.

    Would this work?
    If so, how could I code it?

    This is kind of an deep project, and you are asking in a forum concerned with ASP and related technologies. It sounds like you are making stand-alone applications that are not related to any web technology.
