    Create a gateway using IIS ???

    I hope you understand that I can't go into exact details of the intended use. What I'm trying to do is create a gateway using IIS (using ISAPI filter, HTTP Handler, etc) and it would instantly transfer messages between 2 machines connected with that server. i.e Client A is connected with Server (IIS), Client B is also connected with Server (IIS)...A send Server a message, the server instantly forwards it to B and vice versa. 

    Searched the web and the only solutions offered were to either store it in the database and have the clients constantly poll the server for new messages but this would be slow and bog down the server with constant requests. I've looked into ISAPI filters etc but can't figure out how I can make it work using those.

    I would really appreciate any help you guys can offer!

    IIS cannot "push" content to a client - it only responds to requests from a client.
