Taking a look in the comm.test file, it looks to me like you already had
something on port 12345, so an attempt to open such a port failed.

Hi thanks for your answer but I didn't manage to solve this by looking at your file.

My open ports:
[root at dual /usr/ports/devel/tcllib]# netstat -na | grep tcp
tcp4       0      0  192.168.2.103.22       192.168.2.100.43051    ESTABLISHED

tcp6       0      0  ::1.5432               *.*                    LISTEN

vi work/tcllib-1.11/modules/comm/comm.test

Going to the port line gives me: (I changed it manually to 47557)

test comm-5.0 {-port already in use} {
    # First start a server on port 12345
    set port 47557
    catch {set shdl [socket -server foo $port]}
    catch {::comm::comm new bar -port $port -listen 1 -local 0} msg
    catch {close $shdl}
    unset -nocomplain shdl port
    set msg
} {couldn't open socket: address already in use}

The error message I get is:

[*   ]  [8.6b1] comm        <comm.test>!Connect to remote failed: couldn't open socket: connection timed out
!while executing
!"::comm::comm_cmd_send ::comm::comm 65033 {slaveat 51332}"

!"::comm::comm send [lindex $argv 2] [list slaveat [::comm::comm self]]"
!(file "/usr/ports/devel/tcllib/work/tcllib-1.11/spawn" line 9)


Can there be an issue because I have the pf firewall enabled which blocks all?

Brgds
