Before thinking about TCP/IP component, you should have a very good idea
about what your application has to do. The components are about information
transport, not internet cafe control. You will use TCP/IP component to have
your controlling computer talking to your controlled computers (and the
reverse). Period.
I know some ICS user have written similar software using ICS (TWSocket,
TWSocketServer). Maybe you should ask in ICS support mailing list if they
are willing to share their tips and tricks. See "support" link at my website
for details.
