I've just started experimenting with DataSocket so maybe this'll be an easy question to answer. I set up a simple system by publishing a double on one computer to a server on that same computer and then reading it from another labview app on that same computer. I created a predefined data item for it. That worked great. But, then I tried to read that same item from an app on a different computer. All I can seem to get is the default value I set up in the server configuration. I'm using Labview 6. I've tried both the consolidated new datasocket VIs and also the older 5.1 style Vis as well as just setting up an indicator to read itself. Anybody got any ideas?
