Hej,

I have written two applications.  One acts as a server and listens on a
specific port, the other acts as a clinet.

How can I add some functionality where the client looks up the server?  I am
thinking along the same lines that MS SQL Server client applications use for
searching for and displaying all the MS SQL Server's that are available in
the local network.  Then you can chosen one from the list.

Can anyone help?

/Richard
