RE: [Microsofts_C_Sharp] help in socket programming

[Matt Evans]

Have you got windows firewall (or other firewall software) turned on? That sort of error normally means that there is nothing listening on the specific ip address and port, or that the connection is being prevented due to firewalls etc.   You can see if other applications can establish a connection to your listener by trying telnet, run a command prompt and enter ‘telnet <ipaddress> <port>’ and see if you get a blank screen with a cursor, this means you have connected to your listener. E.g. “telnet 192.168.0.1 8000”   Matt   From: Microsofts_C_Sharp@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of mona shokrof Sent: 22 September 2005 12:14 To: csharp ms; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Microsofts_C_Sharp] help in socket programming   hi every body   i have a problem in socket programming i am using c#   i am making a small application using tcplistener and tcpclient   i start the listener successfully   but when i open the client form it gives me an exception   it's messege is  "A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond"    and it's error   10060   i though it may be the port or sth   but when i changed it it gives the same exception   and also if the listener is not started it gives the same exeption   this is the code of the client   sr = new StreamReader(new FileStream("IP.txt",FileMode.Open,FileAccess.Read)); string ipad = sr.ReadLine(); Cilent = new TcpClient(ipad,8000); //here it gives the exception sr.Close();   the stream reader has no problems it reads the ip address correctly i am just trying both applications on the same pc   i am sorry 4 this long mail   thnx in advance   bye   __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
