Hi,

I created a small chat server where clients login and connect, afterwhich they can communicate with each other. I want to expand this further so that the clients, who presently are crowding within this one area, can get into 'ROOMS' where they can communcate EXCLUSIVELY with those inside that particular room only, while the others do the same in their other rooms.

Do I need to create some sort of 'sub-server' for each room under the main chat server? I hope somebody could give hints to point me to the right direction... e.g. an overview of the concepts of 'multiple chat rooms under one chat server' thingy, etc. Thanks a lot.

I used System.Net.Sockets...
