[zeromq-dev] Remote client does not receive any messages

[Andreas Bauer]

The code for the test cases is just the one I’ve already attached. Really nothing more.

But true, it was a strange network issue. I’ve overlooked that my test server’s firewall (Macbook) hat an accepting but also a denying rule for incoming traffic for java programs… Sometime, just talking about a problem, helps :)

Could you provide complete minimal test cases for both sides?

As you move pieces to remote boxes, some things take more time. Could
just be that, nothing weird at the network level.
