slighty OT (and slighty stupid) : triggering events

[Pierre Sahores]

Hi,

IPV6 will do us able to build such kind of apps but i have never 
experimented that for yet.

The only way i know to simulate this kind of stuffs under IPV4 is to use 
the server-side cgi or app to store some parameters in a server-side 
file witch can be tested by a "on-idle" alike command working on the 
client-side app. I never tested this successfully before in using a 
web-based app nor cgi-scripts but i got the expected good results in 
using this method to build a VPN on-line networked game app.
