socket connection failed, telnet OK
- by cf16
my problem is that I can't connect two comps through socket (windows xp and windows7) although the server created with socket is listening and I can telnet it. It receives then information and does what should be done, but if I run the corresponding socket client I get error 10061. Moreover I am behind firewall - these two comps are running within my LAN, the windows firewalls are turned off,
comp1: 192.168.1.2 port 12345
comp1: 192.168.1.6 port 12345
router: 192.168.1.1
Maybe port forwarding could help? But most important for me is to answer why Sockets fail if telnet works fine.
