Hello,

i got problems with the TcpClient in CF1.1 (WinCE 4.2) When i try to
connect to a server i got immedently the exception "No such host is
known". If i try the same code in Framework 1.1 (WinXP) or in Compact
Framework 2.0 (WinCE 5.0) it works.

code*

client = New TcpClient(ServerName, Port)

code*

Some people say to me, there was a unsolved problem in the CF 1.1, is
this right?
any workaround?

Please Help

Best Regards Benjamin Wagner

Firstly, are you running the latest Service Pack (SP3)? Although I don't see 
any fixes related to TcpClient in the list:-

Are you able to resolve the IP address using the Dns class?

How are you connected to the network?  What name are you passing in 
ServerName?  It does work, generally.  As Peter asked, what actual version 
are you using (there's no such thing as .NET CF 1.1)?
