How to communicate across servers?

[Brett]

If I have two VB .NET apps on seperate servers, which I have full access to,
how can they communicate with each other? For example, forms in each app
sharing data (one form getting textbox value from another form), just as if
the forms where in the same app.

Thanks,
Brett

You should look at remoting. There are tons of examples/articles around
about it.

I have app1 that uses a timer. It polls every 1 second to get thread state
status. This is then displayed in a text box on app1. If app1 is on the
server and I have app2 on my desktop that diplays the timer state in its
textbox, will that require much use of resources or is it a feasible
venture?

Thanks,
