"minil minil",

There aren't many rules that you need to worry about here on the Ranch, but one that we take very seriously regards the use of proper names. Please take a look at the JavaRanch Naming Policy and adjust your display name to match it.

In particular, your display name must be a first and a last name separated by a space character, and must not be obviously fictitious.

Thanks!

Lakshmanakumar,

Thank you for chaning your name.
However, our naming policy requires both a first and last name.
Please go back and add the one that is missing.

Thank you.

Check if you are able to ping the machine.

[William Brogden]

localhost does not require network connection, using an IP address requires that the network can locate your machine by that address. Perhaps there is a firewall that blocks port 8080 or other impediment. As Lionel says, try pinging that address.

I am able ping my machine from my machine but not from other machine..

How to check any firewall for port 8080 ( Windows XP)?
