Any here I thought that a MAC address was a special address book that Billy-bum

Subject: socket programming - vb client, linux c server
Date: Thu, 18 Mar 1999 21:37:44 GMT
Does VB send initial return characters when connecting to a socket?
If not then I don't know what is going on.
I have written a server on my RH5 system that reads a string. When I use the
client that I wrote on the same system using C everything works perfectly.
The server's recv() statement even seems to wait till I send something before
it goes on to the next statement.
When I try and use the client that I wrote on my windows95 machine using VB5,
"nothing" seems to be getting sent to my server. The log file the server
makes says that there was a connection from the VBclient but.. when it says
what data is recieved there is nothing. But even if it says "nothing" there
must be something right? b/c the recv() statement will wait till it gets
something.
The only explantion that I can think of is that the recv() statement is
reading something from the VB client before it sends the info. ie. I was
thinking the VB connect control did something wierd.
Has anyone come accross this before?
I would really appretiate any advice.

That's normal FTP, but port 21 (server side) is used by the control
connection and 20 for data transfer. The data connection here is
initiated by the server.
>- The other uses port 20 to connect and port > 1024 to send data.
Again, it's port 21 on the server for the control connection. But
you're right, a high port is used for data transfer. However, this
connection is initiated by the client.
>Don't know why, but ie or netscape, both use this later model, so the only

>>1024, I think...
Nope, it's the other way around. You need to allow outbound
initiations and transmissions, i.e. TCP packets with the SYN and ACK
bits set, but only need to allow packets with the ACK bit set back in,
going to and coming from the high port range for passive FTP's data
connection. This is actually more firewall-friendly than normal. The
normal FTP requires the masquerading module to make it work, because
that intercepts the PORT statement on the control connection, with
which the client tells the server which port on it (client) to connect
to for data transfer.
In ipfwadm syntax, passive FTP data can be enabled with the following
lines. Replace the shell variables according to your configuration:
ipfwadm -I -a accept -P tcp -S $INSIDE 1024:65535 -D 0/0 1024:65535 \
-W $IN_IFACE
ipfwadm -F -a accept -P tcp -S $INSIDE 1024:65535 -D 0/0 1024:65535 \
-W $OUT_IFACE -m
ipfwadm -O -a accept -P tcp -S $OUTIFIP 61000:65096 \
-D 0/0 1024:65535 -W $OUT_IFACE

Have you got got "PnP OS Aware" setup in the PC's BIOS.
You may have to disable this for Linux.
I have three PC's all with Realtek 8029 cards, they work great (transfer
rates about 1Mb/s).
I compiled support for the card into the kernel by selecting PCI NE2000
cards.
Note you didn't say what version of linux you have or the kernel version.
I am using Suse 5.2 with kernel 2.2.3 and as I said it works great.

I had the same problem until i got rid of the services packs 3 (or 4) on NT.
I know this is not the perfect solution, but it is good enough for me.
My NT station is very stable, as long as i do Netscape, Telnet, FTP, and

It still crash once in a while with Visual Studio (VC++), but that's work

I have the Compex 10mbps Ethernet card. With your disk that came with
it, it should have a program called flpnpsnap. (assuming your card is
ISA, not PCI) When it finds your network card, take it out of PNP mode
and set an IRQ and I/O port for it. I used IRQ 5 and I/O 260. Then in
Linux, go to Linux Config under server properties or whatever and set
the card up under Adapter 2. Use your IRQ you specified and your I/O.
Set your I/O up as 0x260. Even if it says 260-27fh, you still start out
at 0x(then the base number)

Could I find such a free software(both the server and client parts)?
With the client part installed in my machine and the server
