Remote I/O
Remote I/O is a small server program that runs on a Windows 95/98/NT/2000 computer. It sits in the icon tray and waits for incomming tcp/ip connections (meaning LAN or Internet) to a user definable port. A text-based protocol is used, making it easy to log on to the server using either a telnet application, or by writing your own program that can send and receive ascii strings.
Feature List
- User definable tcp/ip port
- Able to limit the number of connections
- Assignable rights. i.e., which ports are read/write, read only or write only.
- Able to terminate an incomming connection.
I'm currently working on a binary interface interface that would allow my IO.DLL library to connect to a Remote I/O server. The implication of this is that a program that uses IO.DLL to talk to the PCs ports could very well be talking to a machine other than the one it's running on. The only downside to this would be the network propagation delay.
This utility isn't quite ready to be posted--documentation has to be written, but it will be ready soon. Please check back.
