I have a small application that creates a graphic image of a text file that is made from a report. This works great. I dont have a viewer as it was intended to use ie to view the file and this works wonderfully to as its a file share. Now as always i want to extend this to non ms machines and the easiest way i can think of is some sort of webserver. But its not ideal as if i create the jpeg just as a user is requesting it i get a share error. What i would ideally like to do is listen for a http request on a set port, then create thereport then send it. this way the report will be as upto date as possible and i will never get a sharing issue. Obviously the next stage would be threading but i dont want to go that far at the moment. Does anyone have any bright ideas. I have looked at the various code samples of webservers out there but they never seem to be vb.net 2005 or dont work. I dont need a whole webserver just a means of serving this one image file after its created. Im assuming the file has to be saved to disk but if it didnt need to be so much the better. Security is not an issue as its never external (or shouldnt be!)

Many thanks for any input any of you can give
Happy easter
