Hello.
I need assistance in order to make the following application:

I have a c++ program that reads a "1" when someone enters a room. I need
to be able to send a message through internet to a client telling that
someone enters and when that happend, the client must download a file
from the server and store it in its hard disk.
So the question is:
1) How can i send messages from C++ thru internet, or even better, how
can I read the parallel port in java and send a mesage when something
happend?
2)How can i Sava a remote file from a defined URL with different names
each time, whe some kind of message is received?

My Java skills are  obviously none, so please Help me.
Should I use CGI instead?

Thanks in advance,
Jaime Heiss
