Hi all, I have created a UDP program, client and server. What i'm trying to do is, hash a string, save the hasded code and the message into a .txt file and send it over to the server.

I have created the UDP program, MD5 hash codes and writing the output into a txt file. Cant seem to figure out how i could send the file over to my server. Can someone help me?

while waiting, i tried around to do the codes to send a file. Still can't seem to get things to work.

On the server end, i managed to create a file "receivedHashed.txt" but nothing is written to the file.

Here is my new codes.

// Imports

{
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException

        PrintWriter  outputStream = null;       // for sending data
        BufferedReader  inputStream = null;		// for receiving data

		BufferedInputStream bis;
		BufferedOutputStream bos;

		// Create and open socket
		// Connection to 127.0.0.1, port num=2001
        try
		{
            clientSocket = new Socket("127.0.0.1",  2001);
            outputStream = new PrintWriter(clientSocket.getOutputStream(), true);
            inputStream = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(clientSocket.getInputStream()));
        }
		catch (UnknownHostException e)

            System.err.println("Don't know about host: 127.0.0.1");

UDP file transfer can be done by using DatagramSockets and DatagramPacket.

Hope it helps.
