I was having issues sending the encrypted data raw, but that may actually have been the issue I am now encountering, with the timing. I’ll try without base64encoding.

There's no need. You're sending over a TCP socket, not HTTP - so there's no need for an "internet friendly" encoding - you can send arbitrary binary data (since you have effectively length+data - even if the length is sent separately). No need for base64encode or anything like that. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
