Amip over LAN, Failed to start socket server Options

[sabbath]

Hi all

I think I'm just stupid or something but I can't get AMIP to work over my LAN.

I've got winamp running on one computer behind a router. I've forwarded ports 60333 and 60334 to that computer, selected Socket as transport and in the connection settings it is listening to the internal interface (192.168.1.7) on those ports.

On the computer with mirc installed I have added the ac.dll, ac.ini and ac.irc and modified the ini-file to the correct IP (83.233.etc.etc.) to the router.

Then I thought I was done and ran //load -rs ac.irc, the script loads and gives me the following:

CODE

*** AMIP Socket Client initialized (v1.4)
*** Failed to start AMIP Server =(

Do I need to do something else? Do I also need amip running on the machine running mirc?

I've tried the ping command which of course returns 0. But when loading or rehashing ac.dll I don't get an outgoing firewall connection alert, which leads me to believe I'm missing some step here.

All help is greatly appreciated.

- Host: 0.0.0.0 (same as srchost in ac.ini)

must be a real host, not the wildcard.

Doh! Don't I feel stupid. It works absolutely fine now. What was the problem? I had to restart mirc...

Thanks for your help, the host did indeed need changing.
