If you have two clients that are each restricted to "outbound only" (regardless of port restrictions), they won't be able to talk to each other -- neither can accept a connection from the other so there's no way to establish a direct connection. That has nothing to do with .Net or DIME or anything; it's just TCP/IP. You need a server to stand in the middle. (How could the two clients learn about each other? If each communicates with the server, then there's a place to hold the list of all clients; without that...) If all you're doing is uploading and downloading files, perhaps you should just use FTP. Good luck. (BTW, why are messages from "Angela Tocco" signed "Steve"?) J.
