PHP sockets tut help

http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/php5sockets_flash8.htm

I’m workin on that tutorial but i’m havin some problems. I’ve got everything set up on my home test server, and i got the socketRun.bat working alright, but i still get the “server connection failed” text when i try to run the html/swf file from “localhost”…

What should i look at? Any suggestions on where i need to check?
