Hi all,
Alright: after a few months letting it rest, I am trying this
Battleship thing again. I found a p2p library (attached) and have
tried to implement it (p2p.py). However, I am always getting the same
error: errno2: no connection could be made because the target machine
actively refused it.
I suspect my ip addresses are at fault. I am on a public network here
at school, and I keep getting 130... addresses. However, my friend
several cities away cannot use 130, since that is local, right? I am
not sure where to get my ip; that is, where to get an ip that, coupled
with the hard-coded port number, will let my computer connect to his
and vice versa. This does not work for two instances on my computer,
it does not work for my computer and my friend's (different networks),
and it does not work for my friend when he runs two computers on the
same network and tries to connect the two... always that same error
once we try to connect.
This library came with no documentation, and I suspect it was not
intended as a public release, but it is the only p2p file I could
find. I asked the professor here who taught networking, but she just
gave me some Microsoft pages on p2p (helpful for concepts, but not
Python-specific), and no one here knows Python well (CS is not a
popular degree here anyway, so there are not too many of us). If
anyone can spot what is going on, that would be wonderful. Sorry to
keep sending messages about this - I know it must be frustrating for
those who keep responding - but I am hoping that coming at it from a
p2p angle, instead of a server/client angle, will help to clear things
up...
