[Tutor] Socket connection refused

[Djoumy .]

sorry i'm not really good in english so maybe what I said wasn't very clear.
So : launching the server and the client in a (separate) command prompt doesn't work I still have a "connection 
refused" error, I suppose you're stumped :)
I'll try to launch it on another computer, but if it works correctly that will mean the problem is coming from my 
computer... I really don't understand why, since I got a Windows XP professional (SP1) without any specific 
running process.

P.S : By the way, each time I answer a mail of Tutor, it creates a new thread. How can I do to avoid this ? (I 
tried "answer" and "answer to all" but doesn't work)

I'm not 100% clear mate, have you launched both the server and the
client from different command prompts (forget IDLE and py2exe for now) ?

If you have and your still getting "connection refused" then Im stumped.

Can you try it on another computer somewhere ?

It works on windowsXP and linux here at home both with python2.3 .

I do however get an error when I run the client from within IDLE. IDLE
has problems with the Tkinter module sometimes so that doesn't
surprise me.

Can you clarify that you have run the client and server without using
either py2exe or IDLE for any of them please.

Cheers
Nick.
