Hello guys, it has been a long time since my last kixtart script post, but recenlty, while playing with my self-made snmp monitor, a friend ask me if it was possible to translate the network socket part in a COM object usable as a standalone and scriptable client/server component.
In fact, he was thinking to use it for some file tranfert over his network that can be server side controled and on which users wouldn't be able to take their hands. But with the way I used it, I point him that it's possible to pass whatever data you want, as I had to do with a http and smtp engine wrapped around the socket functions, even plain or crypted text containing username and passw .... *add the sound of remaining kixtart neurons connecting*
So that's the point, and the idea that may already exist, but did someone already build a such component, or used the windows socket layer to get a valid admin password for such purposes using a server side scheme ? Or even the whole main logon kixscript or other things too sensitive you don't want the user be able to see it unless he used a memory dump and play with a file containing hundred of megabytes and playing with assembly better than he spoke his native language
To be clear, actually there's nothing more than the base code on my hardrive (saved each 3 days
) so no toy available, but it's just to get an idea about it, if I have to build it fast and badly for a friend or take in mind that more people will use it.
Is the idea viable, isn't it too much coding after in kixtart to be used, and whatever other stupid question comming through.
