I have done some serious work with the ICS components. They are very solid
components, especially the WSocket. You can easily make a Simple Web Server
out of them! The same site also has some cool middleware stuff. Having the
source to WSocket is pretty cool - as I have created several components that
are decended from it.
An example of my work with the ICS components is Encryption Proxy. This
application allows you to secure any kind of TCP/IP communication over the
internet. It simply encrypts the data stream point to point. I am
currently developing specialized versions for various vertical applications
(Interbase/Interclient for example).
Encryption Proxy Features :
1. Encrypt TCP/IP Connections, such as Interbase.
2. RAS Functionality to automatically dial a connection when a client
attempts a connection.
3. Scheduled Dial In Times so that Dial In Machines can act as servers.
4. IP Address Server, enabling Dial Up Machines to find each other on the
Internet.
