I made a little program that will deliver quizes to my students--
Students log on--the teacher's computer recieves a datagram message.
Students choose a quiz--the teacher's computer gets the message and sends the proper quiz back to the student's computer.
It worked fine on my little setup at home--1 pc and 2 macs etherneted together.
BUT when I tried to use it at my school's computer room (Win98 boxes)
Students log on--OK teacher's computer recieves the message
Teacher sends data to student--NO GOOD!
The datagram message is "on gotnews tWhom tWhat"
I use tWhom & a predetermined port to get the student's address and send the data to that address
As I said before, it worked at home. Why won't it work on a larger network of Win98 boxes.
Thankfully I tried it out on a few computers before I embarrassing myself with a flop of a program!! Any help would be appreciated!
Cheers,
Tom
