No matter what I do I can not get one winsock to connect to another. I have one application with a winsock called WinS on it and on another computer with a different IP address I have another application with a winsock on it called WinS. They are both set as TCP and one app is listining on port 7777 and the other one is trying to connect to the other one using the same port and the Ip address as the remote host. It never connects. I've got a status bar on it so I can tell what its doing and it says it's connecting then It just times out and gives an error. I ve got it set up to accept the requested ID on the one thats listening. I have my fire wall shut down so thats not it. Any one got a clue?
