Hi,
For what i know 0.0.0.0 means that your server is listening for requests in any interface, it is not a valid address. You should type something like localhost, 127.0.0.1 or even your machine's public ip.

hope it helps,

cheers!

Hi Folks,

I'm just getting into ASIO, and am having problems with the examples.

I'm trying out both the tcp::iostream examples and the (more basic?)
synchronous TCP daytime clients in the tutorial.  I have the server
print the socket endpoint, which produces:

0.0.0.0:23421

(23421 being a randomly typed socket number, once I figured out that
the '13' in the examples doesn't work because Linux reserves socket
numbers up to 1024 for the kernel).

I then run the client, providing 0.0.0.0:23421 on the commandline as
the address to connect to.  I get this:

Host not found (authoritative)

Does anyone know what that means?  I know very little (read:nothing)
about the tcp protocol, which is probably the real problem. :-)

Thanks
