Dear All I have some problem about *netWorkSpace command.*.I am following the nws tutorial. My operating system is windows XP and R version is 2.11.1. My intention is to share data between different programs. I hope NWS package is good for distributed and parallel data transfer. First I started *NwsService.py* in R working directory. I hope it strats a NetWorkSpaces server on localhost at port 8765. But when I execute *ws=netWorkSpace('R space'). **R return error in make. socket(serverHost, port) : socket not established. *What should I do for solving this problem? Should I install any external software for establishing socket in windows system? Sorry to bothering you a lot. Can anyone please help me to solve this error. Any help would be highly appreciated. Thank you very much Kind Regards W. Mathew [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
