It's not directly what you need, but NSLogger might be worth looking
at. It sends realtime logs from an iOS device to the desktop:

What Nick said. (Disclaimer: I wrote MYNetwork.) It does the TCP client and 
server stuff for you, and Bonjour advertising & discovery. It also implements 
the BLIP protocol which lets you easily send messages in both directions over 
the socket and get replies, which sounds like the kind of thing you want for 
your project.

Maybe look into using XMPP for this. Yes it's an instant messaging
protocol... but it can (and is) used for much more than that. All it does
is transmit xml packets which can be used to control pretty much
anything. Here is a nice web app that communicates with KVM via xmpp.

... just something to possibly think about.

Re: Remote control desktop from iPhone

I think Erica Sadun did a bonjour service example for the iPhone a few years 
ago, but there are samples for iOS Bonjour in the dev docs.

Also, this is up on Google Code and might help point you in the right direction:

Remote control desktop from iPhone

[Eric E. Dolecki]

I'm about to embark on a local project that requires an iOS app to be able
to send string commands to a running OS X application. Essentially a remote
control for the OS X app.

Without having to do a lot of research and the banging of my head against
the fact that there is currently no way to use GameKit on OS X to comm with
an iOS app using GameKit, is there a known project on github or elsewhere
that simply sets this stuff up? I realize it may require a socket server or
something - but I am no networking/Bonjour guru.

Looking for the communication stuff if I can find it so I can concentrate
on what I'll be doing with it instead.

Any known stuff out in the wild I might be able to use? I'll be Googling
and StackOverflow'ing in the mean time.

Thanks for any help,
Eric
