[comp.protocols.tcp-ip] Clients/servers with TCP/IP on SysV

mawson@aldetec.oz (Graeme Mawson) (07/04/90)

We have been trying to create a connection between two Unix machines running
SysV.  On one we have a client program sending connection requests and on the
other we have a server program listening for connection requests.  The machines
are connected via Ethernet using TCP/IP.  We have had no success - with the
client machine not receiving connection accepts from the server.  One 
fundamental problem seems to be binding a suitable well-known address to the
server.

Has anyone had any success with a similar arrangement?

Can anyone offer any advice/help?

Thanks in advance...
Graeme
