Hi!

I search a example of a chatting program.
Most chatting program works with a server and a client.

The application "Omnichat" ( http://www.hide-link.com/ ) is a chatting program
without server. It uses broadcast udp but i don't know how it works.

How made this type of program.
Do you have any examples

Thanks.

Have you seen UdpClient class in System.Net.Sockets namespace see MSDN for help and samples. You can also use Socket class with datagram.... (Connectionless Sockets).

Best Regards,

That chat program uses peer-2-peer chat technology in which the client has a server or a listener module embedded into itself. you can learn more on p2p by searching more on p2p in google.
