Any components I can use? Methods? ... TCP/IP has no broadcasting capabilities. Whichever server component you decide to use is likely to provide access to the list of active clients. You will simply have to loop through that list, sending your data packet to each client individually. Gambit

Broadcast is best done via UDP. Note you get no certainty of response, but my experience in an office environment with adequate bandwidth it is *Pretty good*. I use this method extensively, but I am also sending the data as updates every 5 seconds, so if it does not get through on the first go, it will eventually.
