I am developing a Client-Server application using TCPLister and TCPClient(sockets).

I used the below code. It works fine when I create a TCPListener using local m/c’s IP Address.

However, it doesn't work if I used other than that.(public IP address).

----------Code Start -----------

            IPAddress ipAddress = System.Net.IPAddress.Parse("202.1.25.124");

           TcpListener tcpServerListener = null;

           try

           {

               //create server's tcp listener for incoming connection

               tcpServerListener = new TcpListener(ipAddress, 3333);

               tcpServerListener.Start();    //start server

           }

           catch (System.Net.Sockets.SocketException ex)

           {

               Console.WriteLine(e.StackTrace);

           }

----------Code End -----------

It throws socket Exception saying at this line  tcpServerListener.Start();    -- {"The requested address is not valid in its context"}

Can I create a TcpListener on m/c other than localhost?

This might be a dumb question but are you sure the IP address has been assigned properly?
