Dear all,
I'm working on a networked application, intended for use on local area networks.
So far it works fine using IPV4 addresses for connecting.
I recently tried passing a host name instead of IP address to
connectToHost(), this failed. After more investigation, the lookup
gives an IPV6 address first, and if I give this IPV6 address to
connectToHost(), it fails with a timeout error.
Pinging the IPV6 address works, so I believe the OS/network is not in cause?
Both PCs are running windows 7
Any idea?
Thanks,
Etienne
