VB Chat program Help

-----------------------------------

Hi everyone,

My friend and I are working on a chat program in Visual Basic and we have been able to get it working so far with two people, however we cannot seem to get the server to accept more than one client. Any help in the form of an online tutorial or sample code would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

try udp protocolI would suggest against UDP for a chat program.  It does not guarantee delivery and a chat program is not really the most time critical situation.
