Hi Rich,
No. BBwin does everything it says it can do.
It is just that I want it to do a lot more. To name a few items.
* Instead of initiating a connection to the XyMon server to deliver
its messages, I want it to also wait for XyMon to initiate a
connection and then accept the Windows client messages. This is
required with clients in a company DMZ.
* Support SSL encryption of client messages to XyMon
* Become a "proxy" to accept BBwin client messages from nearby
clients and then forward them to the XyMon server (either
immediately or wait for XyMon connection)
* Support sending to different combinations of servers
* Support alternate message formats (Standard BB text, XML, web
services, etc)
* etc
Take a look at my "about" page at the
http://sourceforge.net/apps/wordpress/xywinnet/about-xywin-net/
Thanks.
