Make sure you keep us updated with this 1 please Srod. I too am kind of planning a small server app which will have a few clients ( which I will have to be writing in C unfortunately ) accessing from the LAN side of the network & a GUI client which will be used for access to the server from LAN & WAN sides of the network.
Any tips I can pick up on in the next dew months will be much appreciated I think...

So far the server is running fine. It has it's own GUI control panel running in a separate thread (away from the server event loop) in which you can examine all clients connected and kick them off manually if you wish (

) and so on.
Have tested so far with a couple of clients running on the localhost and all seems well at the moment, but then I haven't coded anything but the simplest client requests as yet.
I expect the whole thing to implode any time now...

I wouldn't mind having a look if you want to collaborate.

The source will be freely available when I am done but this is not suitable for collaboration right now.
