Make sure the clocks on your two PC's are synchronized.  If they are more
than 2 minutes out of synch, it is considered a time accuracy problem.

Hello,
   I was able to build quickfix on the Mac OS-X platform with little
problem -
   however, I am trying to send a test order from a pc to the mac.  The
fix protocol
   seems to make the connection, but immediately logs the pc off :


bash-2.05a$ ./fixserver1 cfg/executor.cfg

onLogout(BeginString: FIX.4.2, SenderCompID: TW, TargetCompID: CLIENT1)
onLogout(BeginString: FIX.4.2, SenderCompID: TW, TargetCompID: CLIENT2)


The same code works locally on the pc or the mac - so I assume this is
a configuration problem :
Here is the acceptor config file :

[DEFAULT]
ConnectionType=acceptor
SocketAcceptPort=9999
FileStorePath=logs
StartTime=00:00:00
EndTime=00:00:00
DataDictionary=../spec/FIX42.xml

[SESSION]
BeginString=FIX.4.2
SenderCompID=TW
TargetCompID=CLIENT1

[SESSION]
BeginString=FIX.4.2
SenderCompID=TW
TargetCompID=CLIENT2

----
I enabled port 9999 for udp & tcp in the /etc/services file but this
did not help.
Any help would be appreciated - although Im just getting started
quickfix seems to
be a really well designed api -
Thanks in advance-
David
