Is there an easy way to quickly make my TCP Client\Server multi threaded? I have a basic understanding of what it is, but it would be easier if someone could explain it, and maybe tell me how I could take the code for a single threaded TCP Client\Server and make it multi threaded. Thanks in advanced! 👍

This is an in-depth explanation from MSDN.
Remember to google your problems before asking!

Code

using System;
using System.Threading;

// Simple threading scenario:  Start a static method running
// on a second thread.
public class ThreadExample {
    // The ThreadProc method is called when the thread starts.
    // It loops ten times, writing to the console and yielding  
    // the rest of its time slice each time, and then ends.
    public static void ThreadProc() {
  for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
    Console.WriteLine("ThreadProc: {0}", i);
    // Yield the rest of the time slice.
    Thread.Sleep(0);
  }
    }

    public static void Main() {
  Console.WriteLine("Main thread: Start a second thread.");
  // The constructor for the Thread class requires a ThreadStart  
  // delegate that represents the method to be executed on the  
  // thread.  C# simplifies the creation of this delegate.
  Thread t = new Thread(new ThreadStart(ThreadProc));

  // Start ThreadProc.  Note that on a uniprocessor, the new  
  // thread does not get any processor time until the main thread  
  // is preempted or yields.  Uncomment the Thread.Sleep that  
  // follows t.Start() to see the difference.
  t.Start();
  //Thread.Sleep(0);

  for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
    Console.WriteLine("Main thread: Do some work.");
    Thread.Sleep(0);
  }

  Console.WriteLine("Main thread: Call Join(), to wait until ThreadProc ends.");
  t.Join();
  Console.WriteLine("Main thread: ThreadProc.Join has returned.  Press Enter to end program.");
  Console.ReadLine();
    }
}

Output:

Code

[VB, C++, C#]
Main thread: Start a second thread.
Main thread: Do some work.
ThreadProc: 0
Main thread: Do some work.
ThreadProc: 1
Main thread: Do some work.
ThreadProc: 2
Main thread: Do some work.
ThreadProc: 3
Main thread: Call Join(), to wait until ThreadProc ends.
ThreadProc: 4
ThreadProc: 5
ThreadProc: 6
ThreadProc: 7
ThreadProc: 8
ThreadProc: 9
Main thread: ThreadProc.Join has returned.  Press Enter to end program.

I think this should explain it fully.
If not, post what you're unsure about and I'll help you figure it out.

I dont know if this is what you were asking, but this is what I do for multi threading.

Code

Thread threadName = new Thread(new ThreadStart(delegate
{
    //The stuff to be threaded goes here
}));
threadName.Start();

Thread threadName2 = new Thread(new ThreadStart(delegate
{
    //The stuff to be threaded goes here
}));
threadName2.Start();

What the delegate does is that it pretty much just starts the threading and then continues the rest of the code.

Thanks for both of your guy's help, this was for my RAT so if you want PM me and I will give you a free copy when I finish it.

Yes. Using asynchronous sockets would be your best shot.
