LabView console command vi?

Hi, I'm trying to figure out the simplest way to write a LabView vi to allow LabView programs to send command to the Power Pmac. 1) use gpascci and connect using telnet. 2) write a vi using the C API on the host computer (i.e. a dll call). 3) write a server program on the powerPmac that is waiting for a client (socket connection) to send a command. To do option (2) we need a reference to the available C API. So far I seen s few examples and headers files but not an official API listing. Where do I find it? Any other suggestions for a simple LabView interface?

I started a reply about the C api, but why not just use gpascii? I think that is what it is meant for and Telnet is really simple to use once you get past the login part (This isn't that bad either). I haven't done this myself (still waiting for my board to arrive) but I would go this route first if it were me. KEJR
