Jim, Perhaps I am guilty of seeking an instant fix. I am sorry. I have dumped "homer" based on previous comments. Homer can not connect and play with what is already in play. I can deal with that. Tough as that may be. The message you got is prezactly what I got too. Put me off. But I have moved beyond this. NO homer. 4Now. NO, homer was never running in taskmanager. It just quit on the server. Not a huge problem. I think I have some understanding now.............. :) Basically I have given up............... Best, Duncan 20:10 07/25/2007 -0400, you wrote:
Duncan, Did you fire up Taskmanager and check if 'homer' is already running? I had homer running and tried to start another instance of homer. I got the "Something is already listening to 127.0.0.1 ..." message from the 2nd instance, but the 2nd instance didn't know homer (1st instance) was the listening proggy. On my machine (WIN2K) with no browsers running and homer running, netstat -a returns: C:\Documents and Settings\jr>netstat -a Active Connections Proto Local Address Foreign Address State TCP jr0:epmap jr0:0 LISTENING TCP jr0:microsoft-ds jr0:0 LISTENING TCP jr0:1025 jr0:0 LISTENING TCP jr0:http jr0:0 LISTENING TCP jr0:netbios-ssn jr0:0 LISTENING UDP jr0:microsoft-ds *:* UDP jr0:1032 *:* UDP jr0:3015 *:* UDP jr0:netbios-ns *:* UDP jr0:netbios-dgm *:* UDP jr0:isakmp *:* UDP jr0:4500 *:* and without homer running and ...

Is there any way for me to query a given machine to find out "who" is camped out "listening to" 127.0.0.1? I am playing with "homer." (http://www.funkytoad.com/content/view/14/32/) It will not start because somebody else beats homer to 127.0.0.1 for "listening." Yes, this is another progy advised from "mvps.org" that gives out the "hosts" files. I am playing ATM.
