Question Has Anyone Used System.Net.PeerToPeer?

[StoneCodeMonkey]

As the title implies, I'm looking to see if anyone has used the PeerToPeer namespace. Sure it's a Yes or No question, but I hope those of you who answer "Yes" can share a little info.

I wanted to create a simple chat program for my group at work, however I have not been able to determine where to start in the P2P namespace. I suspect my application when launched needs to register itself, listen for peers, be able to accept connections, send invites, and pass data between the peers.

I just haven't been able to put a clear picture together on how to do this with PeerToPeer. It would seem the namespace is tailor made for such an application.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Please move this thread back. It is neither a component nor control question. System.Net.PeerToPeer namespace does not contain components or controls. It also does not use sockets, it is not a Sockets question. Since there is no P2P section in the forum, VB.Net General Discussion seems to be the best fit.
