Question about Simba and Smart

Hello everyone

I've started last week on creating my own web based control panel to control my smart clients over the internet

I've succeeded with that and now I am able to start simba and smart by using a vb script that reads a webpage and if the value is what it needs to be, it starts Simba and runs a script perfectly

But today I was reading some documentation about Simba and noticed it also has socket functions. I've worked with socket servers before, but when I was trying it in Simba today, I saw that I needed my smart client Id to be able to Connect to my socketserver

This is the procedure I need to call
procedure ConnectSocket(Client: integer; IP, Port: string);

So my questions are

1 How do I get my client Id from smart?
2 If your smart client has an Id, then isn't it possible to start multiple smart clients while only one Simba instance is open?

EDIT: [SOLVED] the client id was the id of the created socket
