Subject: [ruby-talk:20590] hml use pragmatic programmer


In trying to learn ruby I've been going through the book.

In the interntet program that uses strings on page 113, the program works 
just fine if I am using windows 98.  On another computer, the one I use all 
the time running windows 2000 professional , the program crashes with the 
following message.

/cygdrive/c/RUBY/lib/ruby/1.6/net/protocal.rb"445 in 'new' invalid argument 
"connect(2)" (ERRNO::EINVAL)
from p113.rb: 23 in 'join'
from p113.rb 23
from p113.rb:23 in 'each'
from p113.rb.23


Any ideas for a fix?

Thanks
Tom Reilly
