Hi, For what i know 0.0.0.0 means that your server is listening for requests in any interface, it is not a valid address. You should type something like localhost, 127.0.0.1 or even your machine's public ip. hope it helps, cheers! On Fri, Jun 12, 2009 at 5:04 PM, Dave Steffen wrote:

Hi Folks,

I'm just getting into ASIO, and am having problems with the examples.

I'm trying out both the tcp::iostream examples and the (more basic?) synchronous TCP daytime clients in the tutorial. I have the server print the socket endpoint, which produces:

0.0.0.0:23421

(23421 being a randomly typed socket number, once I figured out that the '13' in the examples doesn't work because Linux reserves socket numbers up to 1024 for the kernel).

I then run the client, providing 0.0.0.0:23421 on the commandline as the address to connect to. I get this:

Host not found (authoritative)

Does anyone know what that means? I know very little (read:nothing) about the tcp protocol, which is probably the real problem. :-)

Thanks
