Naive Question: Your BIND server is running on port 10000?... Is that for sure? I would have expected a port number < 1024. I believe the protocal (3rd arg) argument to socket() should be 'udp' or 'tcp' rather than the documented int type and value of 0 you used... At least, there's a user-contributed not to that effect... http://php.net/socket -- WARNING [EMAIL PROTECTED] address is an endangered species -- Use [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wanna help me out? Like Music?
