Subject: Re: Socket help, getting Errno::ECONNREFUSED

Okay, fixed my previous problem. But my client is still giving me the 
ECONNREFUSED error.

First I run this script, which seems to work fine:

----------
require 'socket'               # Get sockets from stdlib

server = TCPServer.open(9900)  # Socket to listen on port 2000
loop {                         # Servers run forever
  client = server.accept       # Wait for a client to connect
  client.puts(Time.now.ctime)  # Send the time to the client
  client.puts "Closing the connection. Bye!"
  client.close                 # Disconnect from the client
}
---------------------

then I run the client in a different command prompt (with the server 
script still running)

---------------------
require 'socket'      # Sockets are in standard library

hostname = 'localhost'
port = 9900

s = TCPSocket.open(hostname, port)

while line = s.gets   # Read lines from the socket
  puts line.chop      # And print with platform line terminator
end
s.close               # Close the socket when done
----------------------------------

Sorry, if I'm spamming, but I would really like to get past this mental 
hurdle. And I'm just stuck :/ Thank you again for you help!
