I was out of the office, and just noticed this thread. Are you using WSE? WSE3 has DIME built in, and you can turn it on with a flag in the config file. Very easy to use, and it will automatically be used anywhere a byte array is being sent.

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.
