SYMPTOMS
Starting up the Visual C++ Debug Monitor (Msvcmon.exe) with
Network (TCP/IP) selected and pressing the Connect button causes the following
error:
General network failure (Windows Sockets error
10047)
The monitor then continues to attempt to connect to the host.
On Windows 95, when you press the Disconnect button, the monitor quits.
CAUSE
This problem occurs because the TCP/IP protocol is not
installed on the computer.
RESOLUTION
The problem can be avoided by ensuring that the TCP/IP
protocol is installed on the computer. To do this, start the Network applet in
the Control Panel, and add TCP/IP as a protocol.
MORE INFORMATION
On Windows NT, the Windows Sockets error message occurs,
but the monitor does not quit.
