I am trying to make the iPhone a server and a client at the same time...

What I am trying to accomplish...

1. iPhone running my application opens a "server" socket and listens for incoming network connection from another iPhone running the same application.
2. The server socket has an "ip address" that i can register with my php/mysql server.
3. Another iPhone running my same app acts as the client gets the iPhone server's ip address from the server and make connection to the server iPhone.
4. The client iPhone sends a string "hello, I am James" to the server iPhone and the server iPhone reply with the user's choice of either "Hi, Nice to meet you" or "Get lost!" strings.


ps. the port number i chose was 2048

This is all i am trying to accomplish, but i am making slow progress and banging my head against the wall...
Any ideas/suggestions are greatly appreciated...


Thanx again...

James

Hi all,

Does anyone know the limitation of the iPhone simulator when it comes to networking?
Is it crippled on the simulator?


I've tried two seperate ways of opening up a "server" socket.

By "server" socket, do you mean you are trying to connect to a server somewhere, or that you are trying to open a low numbered (i.e. < 1024) port locally so that you can be a server?


The simulator cannot open low numbered ports for inbound connections but iPhones running OS 3.0 and later can.
