Re: Hi group

Can you telnet from the client machine to the listening port of the server? telnet fedora1 1527 If it connects you know the client can see the listening port which implies a problem with the demo application or configuration. If it doesn't connect it implies there is a problem with a firewall or something else that is preventing the connection between the two machines at that port.
