I am trying to have my PocketPC send data to a DesktopPC. I am using sockets, if I run the binary file for the PocketPC on the desktop I am able to connect and lifes good. When I run the binary on the PocketPC I recieve the following error: 'No such host is known.' The server I am trying to connect to is also a running a webserver, on the PocketPC I am able to view webcontent from the server. This is the code throwing the error.

Visual Basic: 
objTCPClient = New TcpClient
        objTCPClient.Connect(hostname, port)

        'ClientThread = New Thread(AddressOf ConnectionRequest)
        'ClientThread.Start()


        ' Get the stream
        Dim networkStream As NetworkStream = objTCPClient.GetStream()
        Do Until False


            ' Read the stream into a byte array
            Dim bytes(objTCPClient.ReceiveBufferSize) As Byte
            networkStream.Read(bytes, 0, CInt(objTCPClient.ReceiveBufferSize))

            ' Return the data received from the client to the console.
            Dim ClientData As String = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(bytes, 0, bytes.Length)
            Call OwningForm.DebugText(("<Server> " & ClientData))


            'Dim responseString As String = "Recieved."
            'Dim sendBytes As [Byte]() = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(responseString)
            'networkStream.Write(sendBytes, 0, sendBytes.Length)
            'Call OwningForm.DebugText(("Server Sent> " & responseString))
            Application.DoEvents()
        Loop
The variables hostname, and port are passed to the sub.
Visual Basic.NET is preferable; however C# Code is okay I can attempt to convert.
