Socket connection between Mac host and XP guest

Hello,

I have a sever application running on the Mac host - it connects to 127.0.0.1:8009.
I'm trying to connect to the server from an XP guest application - it connects to 10.211.55.1:8009 (that's the shared base adress).

This works fine in the 2 usual other virtualization solutions but not under Parallels 6: client fails to connect.

As advised I tried setting port forwarding:
- Type: TCP
- Port in: 8009
- IP: 10.211.55.1
- Port out: 8009

Now the server is unable to listen to the port!

If I set the type to UDP (naive random test) the server can connect to the port but not the client.

Can someone please give me a hint?

Hello?

I've bought Parallels 6 (80$) and Parallels 7 upgrade (50$) to offer support for my (free) Win software to Mac users and I've spent quite a lot of time trying to solve this issue (server runs on Mac host and client connecting from Win guest using a socket).
