Would a Telnet interface be enough?  I don't have details handy, but I
think there's a Telnet COM object that comes in Windows.  You of
course also have stock objects hanging around for HTML and XML that
can pull from the Internet.  If you're spinning your own protocol or
using a non-ANSI protocol of some sort though, this probably won't
help much.

Subject: Re: Using regular TCP sockets in a vbscript program

Aside from basic TCP/IP configuration with WMI 
(http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/topics/networking/01_atnc_intro.mspx),
I don't believe there's anything built-in for use with VBScript/JScript.
You could use VB itself, or (as you mentioned) many other languages to 
accomplish this.
