socket server with sub directories

[chuchi]

Hi all!



Let's say I have a simple TCP server socket listening on port 1234, with protocols AF_INET and SOCK_STREAM.


If I type the address 'http://127.0.0.1:1234' in the browser the server gets an new connection.



But if I type the address 'http://127.0.0.1/subdir:1234 (http://127.0.0.1/asdf:1234)' there is no connection at all.



How can I configure my socket server to listen to sub-directories in the URL?



Thanks a lot!!

You need 'http://127.0.0.1:1234/subdir'. The way you have it given now, 'http://127.0.0.1/subdir:1234', will try to open a connection to port 80 (the default http port) and try to access a subdirectory of your web server directory called 'subdir:1234'. If you want different directories to be accessible on different ports, I believe you need different TCP server instances.

Hi Rocket2DMn! Yes you are right, that's the proper syntax!

Thank you very much!
