After trying MultiUser Xtra, I am not quite sure it's the solution to my problem...OR I miss somthing here... Well, what I am trying to do is in Director, open a socket(port) and connect to port 1153. On the same machine, there's a 3rd party software running and also connecting to port 1153. Director and this software will talk to each other through this port.
When I tried MultiUser xtra, I have no problem sending messages between 2 Director applications, but this 3rd party software didnt' receive any message sent to port 1153...
Any suggestions?? I am pulling my hair here....
Some idea of the code you're using, especially to connect, would be helpful.
Is opening a socket the same thing as connecting via a port? I didn't think so, but I'd love to hear a definition or distinctions.
The first thing that springs to mind is to ensure you're connecting in #text mode. You might want to read James' article on connecting to a POP3 server using #text mode here:<http://www.director-online.com/buildArticle.php?id=1145#mus>
