Windows 7 Datasocket not working

[ATE_Dude_22]

I have a server program using datasocket (dstp) to communicate with a client running on a Windows 2000 OS PC. The server program works flawlessly when installed on a Window XP Pro host, but when I install the program on a PC with Windows 7 Enterprise, all of a sudden the Datasocket connection doesn't work.

I've made sure all the Windows 7 security features (firewalls, etc...) are configured to allow datasocket to work, but I still get nothing??

Any ideas anyone?

Hi ATE Dude 22,

Are you receiving any errors?  What actually happens when you try and start the server program?

Best,

The problem was with the Datasocket Server Manager, setting the Permissions Groups Administrators to 'everyhost' solved the problem, however, I'm not sure why??? The only host that is actually managing the datasocket server was the host the server is running on, the client was just communicating with it, and the really strange thing, is the packets and connection from the client showed up in the statistics, but no data came through with it???

Hi ATE Dude 22,

What were your Permission Groups set to before you changed it to "everyhost"?  Was it the IP address of the client machine?

No, I had to set the Permissions Group from 'localhost' to 'everyhost', that's all I changed
