I'm not sure how best to approach my problem. I have a service with runs on a remote machine with receives and process UDP packets. I want the service to be able to re-send these packets to anyone that happens to want them (could be no-one, will typically be one machine, but may be more)
I figured UDP Multicasting would be ideal - the service can send to the multicast group and it doesn't matter how many receivers have registered, or even if there are none.
However, I want to be able to access this over the internet and from what I gather this is nigh-on impossible with UDP Multicasting. Is there another method I might use to achieve this?
If relevant, both my client and service are written in C#.
Thanks.
