Hi,

The codes I have attached are similar to a eariler reported problem

However I have my program working either in Solaris or Cygwin only. If
the server is on solaris and client on cygwin and vice versa , the
packet is lost. I cant figure out what the problem could be. I have also put

memset(&su_addr, 0, sizeof(su_addr));    /* server addr info */
     su_addr.sin_family = AF_INET;
     su_addr.sin_port = htons(MYPORT);
     su_addr.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr(u_addr);

This should have solved the probelem but it didnt.
Could youhelp me in this regards.

Probably not. After working around the missing udp_ack.h in your attached example code, I tried it between a Linux and a Cygwin box. http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#WJFFM.

As another data point, I tried this between a real Solaris box and a Win2K box with Cygwin. Works just fine. Nakul, you might want to examine your network topology. Perhaps theres a router which is filtering UDP packets? Or, perhaps you have some Windows firewall filtering going on?
