Shamelessly modified from the boo example sources, but it’s enough to get you started:

import System.IO
import System.Net
import System.Net.Sockets

server = Socket(AddressFamily.InterNetwork, SocketType.Stream, ProtocolType.Tcp)
server.Bind(IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Any, 8200))
server.Listen(1)

while true:
        socket = server.Accept()
        using stream=NetworkStream(socket, true):
                print(StreamReader(stream).ReadLine())

                writer=StreamWriter(stream)
                writer.WriteLine(“Ahoy, this server is running: ${shell(‘booc’, ”)}”)
                writer.WriteLine(“${shell(‘cat’, ‘/proc/cpuinfo’)}”)
                writer.Flush()

MSDN’s System.Net Namespace docs might could also be of use. I’ve tested this on sparc and x86 linux variants with mono.

Hope you find this useful, network programming seems to be a relatively familiar experience if you’ve done it before in another modern language, just took a little bit of scrounging to dig up.
