Sockets in java

[7king7]

I am writing chat application with SIP, i tried to send invite request but sip throws exception. It seems there is a problem with opening socket.
In Windows it works. Please help me i don`t want to go back using Windows.

what's a SIP? :-k
using sockets with Java is very simple.. what does the exception say?
do you use a specific API or the standard one (ServerSocket & Socket classes in the java.net package)?

Can you give some more information?
Are you using some SIP Java library or just plain Java Sockets?
And which Java JDK are you using (java -version)?
Also, some actual code (and the errors you are seeing) would be helpful. I'm not familiar with SIP but I might be able to help anyway.
