Wondering if this is possible? Basically allowing two users on different machines to communicate (TCP) but routing through a servlet located on a different server and not on either of the two machines.
Sure - why not? Plenty of examples using HTTP and browsers, with the servlet keeping track of chat "rooms" and users. There is a simple one in my Servlets and JSP book. Bill ------------------ author of:
