Abstract
A method for managing a computer over a network is disclosed. The method may be implemented by a resident agent on the network. A connection between the resident agent and a sending application may be opened. Application data may be received from the sending application by the resident agent. A header may be received from the sending application by the resident agent. Whether a data package should be sent directly to a receiving application or whether the data package should be sent through a gateway may be determined. If it is determined that the data package should be sent directly to a receiving application, the data package may be sent directly to the receiving application. If it is determined that the data package should be sent through the gateway, the data package may be sent through the gateway.
