In your case, the "socket function not implemented" error is probably due to ixemul.library and ixnet.library. Do you have them in your LIBS folder? Regarding the router, if you're acting as the server, then yes. If you have a firewall, whether you're the server or the client, you must grant it access. Even if you're using DHCP, if it's for your home, you can always assign it a static IP address. Otherwise, I suggest using another version: https://aminet.net/package/comm/fido/fidoblitz --- April V1.09 (SAS) * Origin: April message tosser/viewer (2:341/207.2) ----------------------------------------------------------- [Voltar]
