Hi all,

I tried to also test this out on my system.

As I am not familiar with what all the command options do I just followed Daniels commands.

server: IPFire 2.25 - Core Update 153; Intel Celeron CPU J1900 @ 1.99GHz x4; I211 Gigabit Network Connection

client: Arch Linux; Intel Core i5-8400 CPU @ 2.80GHz 6 core; 1GBit nic

Server:
fireperf -s -P 10000 -p 63000:630010


Client:
fireperf -c <IP address> -P 1 -x -p 63000:63010 where <IP address> was replaced with the IP address of my IPFire Green connection.


I started the server fireperf and there was the table updating regularly.

I started the client and got "Could not open socket: Address family not supported by protocol" scrolling up the screen.

I looked in the log (journalctl) but there were no messages at all related to fireperf just the command being run.


Any thoughts on what I am missing to have setup or installed?


Regards,

Adolf.
