Hi Guys, I have a socket server and client running using the use Sockets;
procedural perl programming.

I ask the client a question via printing to its handle from the server.

as for the response i am currently doing a STDIN from the clients side and printing it to the server handle. is there any way that i can have the keyboard input request code reside on the server side?

and just literally have the client just connecting and interacting with the server?

if not i will leave as i have. even tho client code is getting quite bulky at the moment.

if anyone can point in right direction - i will find solution myself, i just dont what to be trying to do something that you just cant do.

thanks

Are you running a daemon on the server that accepts local commands? You could allow ssh access
