    You can directly use winsock2.

    what is winsock2? is it for MFC? is there any advantage on normal socket functions like listen/bind/createsocket etc (which I have worked on little bit). I am a beginner

    lol. winsock is called - normal sockets. MFC just wraps around. You will get better understanding if you go for winsock API. I don't force you to leave MFC, but that's not my choice when it comes to sockets. Nishant Shivakumar has a neatly written TCP client server application. I'd recommend you to start with that. wait let me check it.

        oh ya that could be also one more problem. I haven't thought about it only. But I guess we can broadcast a special message(going offline) to all. Instead of events notifications. Am I correct? I am a beginner

            thnaks could you please tell me if my design is correct. server ->Maintains a list of Ip_Address-user. Always in listen mode, so that if someone ask for the list it sends it. -> If the admin adds a new user, he will re-send the list to all (but I am not sure, how to do it,when if the clients are busy sending message. should i restart all or do something) client -> on boot/application start, it request server and get the list(His IP-username should be present in the list). And sends a message that he is online to all. ->if he goes offline- he will notify everyone and the go offline. so basically only those people who are listed in the server by admin can only chat

              Your questions are at times too open & wide. :sigh: Try with simple implementation, once you get the picture you can design your complete application.
