by I have a dial up Internet connection. That means each time I log on to
the net I get a dynamic IP address. I got an assignment of making a
chat program in Linux platform. I made a server and a client program
using message queue. The server can accommodate many clients at a time
and the clients can chat between them though all the programs must run
in one machine.
I want to know that when I am connected to the Internet and I am
running the server program on my computer can my friends who are also
using dial up ppp connection access my server and chat among themselves
using my client program. Just like yahoo messenger. Obviously I will
change my program and implement it using sockets.
Can I do this? If not then why? If yes then give me some idea about
it.
Please someone help me. It is very urgent.
