The classic example is X11: you have an X11 server on your workstation and the client is the application (which runs on the server). The X11 server is where the UI is displayed. Most of the CFMX 7 event gateways are clients that have to connect to servers (JMS, IM including XMPP, SMS). The Socket Gateway is a server - you connect to it with any number of clients, for example, telnet. -- Sean A Corfield -- http://www.corfield.org/ Team Fusebox -- http://www.fusebox.org/ Breeze Me! -- http://www.corfield.org/breezeme Got Gmail? -- I have 49, yes 49, invites to give away!
