which is cool because you can learn fast :) I like to try to answer questions because this is a good way to learn. Thanks for having this cool attitude too. Stef
Hi guys. No, it doesn't work for me neither. I have checked in Pharo 1.0 and 1.1 with both: useOldNetwork as true and false.
I have debugged a little the:
Socket ping: 'localhost'
And the problem I found is that after calling "connectNonBlockingTo: hostAddress port: port"
self primSocketConnectionStatus: socketHandle.
should answer something different thanUnconnected ( 0 ), like WaitingForConnection (1) or Connected (2) check Socket class >> initialize
So....I should see in VM side why primSocketConnectionStatus: socketHandle. may be returning 0 (unconnected).
Now...if I ping
Socket ping: 'www.google.com'
The result is different as I get WaitingForConnection (1) instead of 0....but it loops forever as I always get 1 and never 2....see the loop
[(status = WaitingForConnection) and: [(msecsEllapsed := Time millisecondsSince: startTime) < msecsDelta]] whileTrue: [ semaphore waitTimeoutMSecs: msecsDelta - msecsEllapsed. status := self primSocketConnectionStatus: socketHandle].
in the method waitForConnectionFor: timeout ifTimedOut: timeoutBlock
I will continue to check, but my knowledge in this area is almost nil.
Cheers

Hi Stefan,
Mariano asked me to try using that method to set UseOldNetwork.
I only was testing the class method Socket>>ping: from the workspace, and it always timed out.
It also did not work in the Pharo1.1 image that Mariano asked me to try.
