I can take you step-by-step through what needs to be done, but I probably wouldn't be able to explain as well as Rick Strahl already has in the articles he has written on the subject. Go to www.west-wind.com and check out the articles on Distributed HTTP apps and FoxISAPI (not that you'll necessarily want to use FoxISAPI, but it is one option).

If you still have questions, or need ideas on the details respond to me again and I'll be happy to explain in more detail how I've tackled some of this stuff.
