Hi Kirk,
I wanted to thank you for your informative and helpful post.
You've straightened out the client-server (or not) aspect for me
and thanks for the pointer to the demo and the bit of history
about the demo. Its all very interesting and I'm re-energized
to try again. I'm still not clear on whether DO can provide
notifications but I'll discover that as I go.
All the best,
Steve

I would look at Distributed Objects again. It really isn't
intrinsically "client-server" oriented any more than Cocoa is.
A client-server architecture is just one way to use the
distributed object functionality. It does tend to be easier to
have a single- source-for-truth to keep things organized,
however, but that is a general data problem not related to DO.
For a possibly useful demo and source-code, check out
"Distributed Objects Demo" at
<http://www.thotzy.com/THOTZY/Codez.html>, or just go to
thotzy.com and click on the "CODES" navigation item at the top
of the main page.
The demo implements both same-machine and local-subnet DO, and
several different threading schemes.
The demo also demonstrates painless Bonjour using
NSPortNameServer without needing to fuss with NSNetService or NSNetServiceBrowser.
The demo was originally written as a bug-report demo to reveal
a port leak in certain configurations of threaded DO. That
port leak appears to have been fixed in Leopard.
