Well,
What i wond to do is make a application that listens on port 999
and when:
127.0.0.1:999/userass-start is requested that it would load a program on the servers computer??

so is it posible? if yes how?

thanx in advance

Yes, its possible. Youre going to have to break your requirement down in to individual problems before you get much help, though. To start you off, you can use a TcpListener class (amongst other things) to listen for connections on a specific port. Consult the documentation for more info and examples.

so:

Dim server As New TcpListener("0.0.0.0:999")
server.start()
will start the to listen on port 999 on all IPs on this computer?
