NetChat 5.0
-----------------------------------
I have just finished creating a chat program that will connect to multiple users.
Have a look at it. I have it on my NetChat server.

Ya i did something like this too.

I had it so any number of users could join, and the server would keep track of who was online and offline. I also made a user authentication so you could have user accounts, and access levels. (if you had a 3 you had more control than a user with a 1) and obviously the login computer wouldn't have the usernames or passwords. 
I made a mail server with this engine too :D

just type "logoff" to logoff the client.

Can't actualy run it right now but the code looks solid. I'm still doing some work on mine and I don't plan on ever having passwords because it is just used on a local network anyway altho I can set it up for external access aswell. I will be adding a flxible array later for more users.

How can you set it up for external? 
Make a server then connecting with Net.URLConnection?
If so, what do you use for setup for that server. Apache?

you have to port forward from your router. depending on the ports you have setup in the program you would need to forward all of the ports to the computer that has the program
