Simple client/server socket program works on one Linux machine, it doesnot work on other machine

Installed RH9 on Two machines, simple client/server socket program
works on one machine without any problem, but on the other machine, it
is not working (when the client tries to connect server, I am getting
"broken pipe" message), any idea, what was the reason?.

Thanks in advance for any kind of clue.

did you try disabling the firewall?

> any idea, what was the reason?.

Can you explain little more with the error message?

Normally, the broken pipe error occurs when the client/server (either
of them) of the TCP socket closes connection or gets killed. But then
the other end still tries to write to it.

Did you try with localhost first?
