Ok, so I messed with the code you sent me a little, and tried it using ãboth "127.0.0.1" with port 5000 + bbs.node_numãand "127.0.0." + bbs.node_num with port 5000ããboth had the same result, listen error: 45ãbut there didn't seem to be a problem binding them either wayããhere's the code.. it's spammyãI didn't really expect it to work, since I'm half guessing, but I thought I ãwas on the right track.. maybe not.ããload("sockdefs.js");ãload("sbbsdefs.js");ãload("nodedefs.js");ããvar stream=new Socket(SOCK_DGRAM, "InterNode");ãmain();ã ãfunction main()ã{ã if(!stream.bind(9000+bbs.node_num, "127.0.0.1")) {ã writeln("Bind failed: "+stream.error);ã exit(1);ã }ã else ã {ã if(ConnectionListener()) Chat();ã else exit(1); ã }ã}ãfunction Chat()ã{ã //Receive();ã writeln("Test connection successful");ã exit(0);ã}ãfunction ConnectionListener()ã{ã write("Waiting for users to connect");ã for(i=0;i<10;i++)ã {ã for(node in system.node_list) {ã stream.sendto("ping","127.0.0.1",9000 + node);ã }ã if(stream.listen()) return true;ã if(console.inkey().toUpperCase()=="Q") exit(1);ã

I.E. if you're ãthe only one trying to run the engine it will either wait for someone to ãconnect, or kick you out. I guess I can make it send a "yo! I'm here!" message ãwhen anyone runs it.ãã---ã þ Synchronet þ The BRoKEN BuBBLE (MDJ.ATH.CX)ã
