Test Program in Delphi7 and XP on vmware, failed to connect socket
<p>I try to run program in <strong>Delphi7</strong> and <strong>XP</strong> as virtual machine, the program include client and server and requires socket connections, but every time I try to run it, always showing error message like below.</p>
<p>I have already opened the <strong>scktsrvr.exe</strong> and I'm sure the port is right at both sides. The program need call the local port.</p>
<p>What confused me is that I tried with same environment and operation with my real PC and it works fine.</p>
<p>So I have no idea why I just can't run the program in a virtual machine. Or is there anything I should do if I want to use socket connections in a virtual machine?</p>
