    running NSClient++ 0.3.1-RC3 on Vista home premium current patches, no obvious conflicts with the firewall and various nag/nuisance systems.

    does it work without the bind_to_address line?

    The error indicates you are trying to use something that is not a "socket"....

      I should have known better, when in doubt with windows reboot. I did have to comment the bind to line but it works fine after a reboot. THANK YOU mickem!

      FYI - i may be reading this backward but i thought zero (0) means use the ini file, in testing it looks like one (1) means use the ini file. ;# USE THIS FILE ; Use the INI file as opposed to the registry if this is 0 and the use_reg in the registry is set to 1 ; the registry will be used instead.

      Fantastic work on this. Please don't stop!
