Oh I am trying to connect locally, also on both FMP's when I set the web companion to a port below 1024, the change setting box appears, I say ok, and it will give me the error message

"Web Companion cannot share files over the web because it does not have enough memory or TCP/IP networking could not be started. (-1)"

Try increasing the memory for FM.

Strange message in any case.

What is the platform?

Ok fixed.

This occured on a Mac OS X server.

THe solution was simple, FMP 5.5.Vr.1 doesn't work with lasso 6 - I had to upgrade to FMP 5.5vr2 and all was better.

Thanks for trying

One note FMP 5.5.1 memory cache only allows u to 9999 but 5.5.2, will only let from 16000 to 32000 - and so I feel you are correct in a way but I couldn't increase the memory anymore until I upgraded.

I am glad it is working now. Although Lasso will work even with old FM4, but probably not on OS X.
