Hi, I am interested in trying to access AMIP from *nix. It appears that AMIP server creates a TCP socket connection that should be able to be accessed remotely. Can you give some indication on how this could be done?

I've tried with socket and telnet, but both indicate that the AMIP hosting machine refuses the connection.

My setup:

[WIN]
AMIP Server:40581

[NIX]
Client access:
`telnet WIN 40581`
`socket WIN 40581`

Thanks

AMIP on Windows is not using ASIO for RCF, but the native sockets, so it could be a problem. I'll try contacting RCF developer with this question.

What kind of client do you want to write and what for?

Thank you for looking into this for me. I could help you with anything you'd like if you want help using asio on windows, although I'm not much of a programmer.

This is kind of a fun little project for me to do, so the program I write could be as simple as an executable which pulls the song information from AMIP, or an irssi plugin which implements greater functionality. Myself, and a certain percentage of the populace, use Windows as a desktop, but PuTTY+irssi for chat. This would be great for us, as AMIP appears to be quite powerful. Other solutions I've tried were having another Winamp plugin FTP a file with song information to my server, but this is very ugly in comparison with the solution I have in mind.

I guess you are the person who responded to my post on codeproject :-)

I will try to write a simple server program on windows using RCF/ASIO, and see if this will allow cross-platform TCP/socket connection if that would help you diagnose...
