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

Bless you for taking this on, Fred.  It will offer a more capable
alternative to BBWin, which can still be used where it meets requirements
and a .Net footprint is not desirable.

On your "about" page, where you say "formally Hobbit", I think you meant
to write "formerly".
