Actively Refusing TCP connection (works in non-CF)

[Yechezkal Gutfreund]

I have used tcpClients extensively in non-compact framework apps. I create
both the client and the server using the framework with the 1.0 and 1.1
frameworks.

However, I am now trying to do the same with a PPC2002 (emulator and with
real Ipaq 3900).

My dev environment is VS2003, but I have the SDK for PPC2002 installed.

Let's stick to the emulator, for now.

I get the dreaded:


+ err {"No connection could be made because the target machine actively
refused it" } System.Exception


I have tried the real name of the machine, "localhost", and "127.0.0.1", all
with port 1613.

The server is also written in .net and is very minimal. It does:

Int32 port = 1613;

IPAddress ipAddress = IPAddress.Parse("127.0.0.1");

IPEndPoint ipLocalEndPoint = new IPEndPoint(ipAddress, port);

TcpListener myListener = new TcpListener(ipLocalEndPoint);

Tools.Debug(9, "Test PTMW Server Starting...");

myListener.Start();


// Program blocks on Accept() until a client connects.

for (;

{

Socket socketForClient = myListener.AcceptSocket();

Tools.Debug(8, "Client Connecting");

yes, but it is working now. Seems to have been an issue with DNS.
