problems with tcp-tunnel server-side

[Oliver Rettig <Ol...@telda.net>]

Hallo,

I´ve developed a soap-server running on a linux system and I want to use
tcptunnelgui to have a look of the xml that will be exchanged between
the clients and the server. I can´t use tcptunnel on the client side
because it´s not me starting the clients. So I want to start tcptunnel
on the server:

java org.apache.soap.util.net.TcpTunnelGui 8008  http://blablabal 8080

If the client now trys to connect on port 8008 it gets the error:

java.net.ConnectException: Verbindungsaufbau abgelehnt

Is that a problem of tcptunnel or is it a problem of linux? What to do?

best regards
