For Solving that problem you need Live IP, where you Server application would run. but be cautious it's little costly!

i don think so :), it is socket based application like msn messenger,it is windows based application not asp/asp.net pages:(, i dont think it should be placed in web based section.

I doubt that's going to be all that possible - especially if two clients are behing firewalls. Is it such a problem to have the messages go: clientA<->server<->clientB ? Unless you are sending large files, the traffic and latency should be a non issue. Also, it would allow to have multiple participants in a "conversation" more easily. Iain.

yes, server will be in live ip but i am talking about those clients which are in the private network or LAN on another organization. i am talking about that situation in which two clients are from different lan, like two persons communation using msn and both are from 2 different private network(LAN's). i hope you understand my point.
