XBee and propGCC and networking

I want to open up a discussion about how to get some XBee units too talk to only one XBee at a time, or something along those waves. I have three XBee units, one is plugged into my desktop and is accessed through a terminal program. One is now a mobile unit, which has a Sensirion module, which provides temp/humidity when accessed. The third one is attached to my Raspberry Pi(RPI) and provides a time/date stamp when requested. Right now they are all setup as peer to peer, one broadcasts the other two get the broadcast, I would like to have a more one to one setup.

So, I guess I am looking for some experts in this area, or at least someone that has done this already, and is willing to give up some examples as to how this could be accomplished, in C of course. The RPi is done in Python which I think I can do after I figure out how to do it in C.

Thanks

Ray

    Is there an XBee expert around?

    I only know how to use the point-to-point modules provided by Parallax.

    I think Chris Savage is delving into networking, but he is doing it in Spin, so that is no help here as far as C coding goes. I also forgot to mention that all my units are series 1.

    @jazzed, I mentioned in my other thread that when I did the auto zip thing in Simple View, the zipped file did not have a CMM folder included, not sure if this is a problem or not.

    Writing C code that does the same thing as SPIN code is easy. Give it a try. If you are having trouble, post it here.

    The zip only includes sources. The CMM folder does not include sources.
