Hi Dr Sun
The TCP/IP monitor wont work on local monitoring port 6000 on my set up but it works if i change it to 2000, is there something i need to do to make it work on 6000?

I remember him saying you could use any port as long as it wasn't being used for something else. I'm assuming your computer is using 6000 for something.

yeah i guess so in this case... do you know how to scan which ports are being currently used by your localhost?

cool that works  i do see my ports but i dont think 6000 is in use.. still cant run the TCP/IP monitor on 6000 but it runs on other ports like 2000..i think its cool for now....thanks for the share
