R help - Aug 2007 - Question on R server and TinnR

Hi -

Classic question that I tried to look up online and couldn't find a clear
answer. It seems that I can have R to act as a server. But I never know how this
works. Would anyone please provide an example or introduction material where I
can learn about this? I'm trying to build an environment where computation
are distributed/delegated among different servers requested whenever I need.
Thank you.

So if you go to TinnR in R menu on the menu bar and choose 'R server:
connections and tests'. What does that do exactly? It seems to me that
there's a way to have R listening to incoming request from remote machine
from TinnR. If anyone could share your knowledge, I'd really appreciate.
Thank you again.
