Inet Help

[Networks]

I just would like to know how to use Inet. I'd like to know everything about it or at least enough for me to able to log entries through an application: basically Just exporting to a html file to make tables telling who uses my bot, what channel, time, version etc.

Any sufficient help in making this capable for me would be much appreciated.

Fair question.  From reading the above, I believe you have already in your possession a bot written in Visual Basic, and you would like to add a feature to it that logs output to a web page, ala Webbot.  Is this correct?

If so, is the bot running on the web server, or are they different PCs?  Your answer will affect the rest of the design.

No not a webbot, sorry you have misenterpeted but what I was looking to just to log users who use my bot. Outputting it to a Webpage basically stating: the username, home channel, & time for who is using the bot.

Simply want to see who actually uses it and other info but not as a backdoor of any sort.

Both can be done in pretty much the same manner. If I am not mistaken, Grok was asking you a question so that he could help you with your problem.

Probably a UDP transmit to your listening web server then.  Run a service there to receive the logon packets and record to a disk file as a delimited line item, tabs would be easy.  Then write a web page (ASP, Java, or (eww) PHP) to parse the text file when you want to view the data.

Is there anything really simple I could do using Inet? Could you help me or show me an example?

What do you mean "using Inet"?  What is Inet in this context?  The Internet?

I think he means Microsoft's "Internet Transfer Control" (MSINET.OCX).

1)Create a php script that logs info to webpage/txt document on a webserver.
2)Execute the phpscript with Inet & send the info you want to log

I dont know PHP

You could also use ASP.  Now might be a good time to learn one of the two.  It'll serve you well.

Is there no other way of exporting it to HTML using the msinet.ocx control?

Man I wanted an easy way to do it...Guess not

Maybe I'll just have to learn Php
