Ah, I got the answer from this thread:
http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-maya/python/commandport-doesnt-work-in-vista-32/
Basically, you need to run your commandport twice, like so:
commandPort -name "127.0.0.1:6000" -echoOutput;
commandPort -name ":6000" -echoOutput;
Crazy.
(and I'm not
Firewall is turned off. I tried opening my port via a shell like
thus:
>netsh firewall set portopening ALL 6000 myport
But it didn't change the outcome :( (I just pulled that from a code
example online)

Have you checked to see if the Windows Firewall is active on the Vista
box?
I ask because in Win2k there was no such thing, but they added it in
XP and then Vista -- if it's on it might be the causing the error.

Vista security maze maybe? make sure that vista is not locking all ports

I'm trying something I've used for years, on Maya2008\win2k:
In maya:
commandPort -n ":6000" -echoOutput;
In Python (external to Maya):
import socket
maya = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
maya.connect(("127.0.0.1", 6000))
But I now get his error in Maya2010 64bit \ Vista
sock
