RE: Anyone using tcpmon?

[Roumeliotis, Pete]

I haven't used tcpmon, but  have used the similar TcpTunnelGui.  The monitor acts like a proxy, and will forward all of the soap traffic to port 8080 for you.  You need to tell it to listen to an arbitrary port number, say 4321.  So your soap client must connect to port 4321, not 8080.  The monitor will then forward all traffic to 8080.

 

Hope that helps,

Pete R.

Greetings,

 

I can't follow the instructions for using tcpmon.  It says to select a "local port" to monitor.

Tomcat is configured to port 8080.  Isn't that the port I want to monitor?  When I do that,

I get a bind error.

 

What do you mean by " target host where it will forward such connections"?  What does it

mean to "forward" a connection?  And what's the language about tunneling about?

 

Thanks.
