Hello!

How to control a hardware device through an ASP.NET page?

I used to do it using a client ActiveX (C++ or VB6).

What is the .NET equivalent for ActiveX controls in this case?

Is it possible to replace this ActiveX for a .NET component acting like that?

you call it a User Control....
yes it is possible, once you have appropriate data exchange protocol for your device, you create a user control... I wonder whether you noticed those, WEB CAMS where you can move/zoom the cam itself through web...

Thanks.

Do I need configure same kind of security setting to do this?
