Vague question.

What you are doing is sending data using sockets. It may be a case of how you encode a file, or multiple files into that data.

If you can send one file, how are you doing it?

And it depends what you mean by asynchronously. If you mean using Begin/EndInvoke type stuff well that's up to you but it's not necessary. If you mean multiplexing on the wire, well only pain and misery lies down that road.

Solution 2

I did similar to http://socketprogramming.blogspot.de/2007/11/file-transfer-using-c-socket.html.When i tried to send multiple files, all the files could not be sent properly.
