How to connect to TCP server? #110

Open escherstair opened 2 years ago

escherstair commented 2 years ago

I setup a TCP server on localhost, which listens for connections on port 23. I can test successfully the server with PuTTY, so I'm sure it accepts connections from a TCP client.

I can't find a way to connect from Serial Studio (I tried both the version 1.1.7 and the latest continous build, but none of them works). The "connect" button that works for a seriel connection is not enabled for TCP, and so I don't know how to connect to the server. immagine

Can someone help me?

If you type something into the remote adress, such as localhost, it becomes enabled. image

If you delete the text afterwards. It correctly defaults to the greyed out 127.0.0.1 so it does seem to be a bug of sorts:

I don't know if deleting text, makes it actually default back to 127.0.0.1 or if localhost works. I don't have any active tcp ports on my current device

Remote address does however work with local dns names. So I would assume it works. I can use the network tab to connect to a ser2net server on my network using local dns.
