Network Programmin


Before I start let me say I have basic knowledge of C and C++ and the code that I plan to write is to be as concise and simple as possible without the need for a GUI.

I would like to connect to and send a predefined string to a VB6 Server program on a windows maching on my LAN using winsocks.

Does anyone know how I could go about this?

Thanks

Boffy

Do you know the protocol used by the server? Once you know what to send and how to communicate, you can build a socket based network client. Search google for C + sockets.
