Open a TCP Connection with another server using CF

[khurram]

Does anyone know how to initiate communication by opening a TCP socket connection with another server over the web?

One suggestion I've got is to send a HTTP POST request with an XML request but I am not sure how to do that?

Thanks.

For many purposes, that is all there is too it.

You can download a simple CFHTTP Post example from here and run it against the "remote" CFHub database.
