I'm using JDK1.3.1 on Windows 98.
I've created simple ServerSocket which accept() on port 8888.
For a VERY MYSTERIOUS reason, I cannot connect to that port number.
When I read from it I get null.
Note that the port is found and no exceptions are thrown.
If I change the listening port to any other than 8888, all works well.

I'm using RMI in that application too.
Could there be a connection?
