[Tutor] Socket Programming

[Mousumi Basu]

I want to perform binding between two computers having ip addresses
172.18.2.11 and  172.18.2.95.So i wrote the following code(on the computer
having IP address 172.18.2.95):-


import socket
import sys
s=socket.socket(socket.AF_INET,socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
try:
    s=s.bind(('172.18.2.11',2213))
    print 'socket bind is complete'
except socket.error,msg:
    print 'bind failed'
    sys.exit()


The output is :-
bind failed


but when i am writting;-

s=s.bind(('localhost',2213))

the output is;-
socket bind is complete



Can you please tell me where i am making the error?
(The computers are connected as the ping operation is executing properly in
command prompt)
