this may be a dumb question, but in any case here it is.

within the same machine, I'm using unix domain socket 
server/clients for communication. How can i get the 
client script send back a result to the server script?


here's my goal. i have 2 machines on the same network. 
machine_a has multi users on it, and machine_b has only 
a single user on it. in machine_b, I have a script that 
generates some numbers. I'd like for the users on 
machine_a to call a client.script that uses the socket 
to contact my server.script on machine_a. Then my server.script
 will issue a "ssh me@machine_b /home/me/run_script".

So far I've been able to do this. however, how would I

get my server.script to send back the results to 
client.script so the users can know of the results 
produced on machine_b?

thanx for any input
