This may be a networks issue.  If you're reasonably certain that your code
is correct, talk to your network admin people the ensure that the server
is listening for connections on the correct port (usually 1645) from your
client machine.

If your server isn't configured to accept those connections your client
can send them all it likes but they'll be dumped at the network level and
you'll be none the wiser.
