Looking for a good solution

[Lee Ludden]

I have an application is running on a local LAN. I need to create a service that other users on the LAN can send XML data to, have it process it, and return back an XML recordset. It will need to be able to queue requests from multiple clients. I am looking for some ideas on where to get started. The clients will all be authenicated via Windows. They all will be connected directly via LAN. VB.NET is my preferred development language (have both 2003 and 2005) Thanks for your time. Lee

Look into web services. They are easy to create and work fine in a LAN environment. You can pass datasets to and from a web service. They make working with xml easy.
