Can a computer be a client and server?
« on: Nov 1st, 2007, 10:47am »		 Quote Quote Modify Modify
I'm wondering if this is possible:
If I have two different networks and my device is on one network.
Can I run the server on the pc with the device, run both the client and server on a pc that is on both networks and then run the client on a pc that is on the second network?

Junk, one more clarification...
If you want to use USB over Network Server + Client as proxy on the "PC that is on both networks", it will not work. Devices connected by "Client" cannot be shared by "Server".
If you really need some kind of proxy you need to use some kind of TCP redirector software. It will redirect all TCP traffic on specified IP and TCP port to another IP and TCP port.
 
Please feel free to contact us, if you need any additional assistance.
 
Thanks!

Okay, thanks for the clarification Andrew.  Currently I've managed to avoid this situation (so far the software is working great), but our near future plans may incorporate this type of set up so I'll make sure to bring this up so we will be prepared.
