Hi John,

Could you explain or rephrase your question

"How exactly do I tell another phone to do a specific task(IE access a
webpage)?"

Q: Also how do I send a file from one phone to another?
A:You can use an existing ftp implementation or write your own ftp
like protocol (read the ftp RFC to get an idea what is needed)

Q:  Once the clients connect to the server, I am stumped as to how I
will get the server to tell the clients what to do.
A: As I already mentioned, you should read the FTP rfc to get an idea
which commands you need. Also check out the FTP application
http://www.lysesoft.com/products/andftp/index.html which gives you an
good idea about possible functionality.
