      Nor the Win32 or MFC, I better suggests you to use C#.net. It will be much easier to do that with C#.net. Also you can use MFC, if you want to do it.

              As I get you want to create server. Simple open a socket and start listening on a specified port. for test open internet explorer. type http://127.0.0.1:5000 5000 is port number on which server is listening request. It is changable but should be same on both server and client. On server read socket.
