Re: Socket Programming On Different Networks

I don't see a Listen port specified in your server/listener.

I do not claim expertise on sockets, but I believe you need to specify a "localport":

my $socket = IO::Socket::INET::->new (  
                                Listen    => 5,
                                LocalAddr => '0.0.0.0',
                                LocalPort => 8888,   # <<<< L I S T E 
+N  on this port
                                Proto     => 'tcp',
                                ReuseAddr => 1); # "Reuse" is deprecat

All power corrupts, but we need electricity.

Thanks for catching that early. I forgot to change it back to LocalHost and LocalPort when I was troubleshooting it.	[reply]
