Hey am a begineer to javaEE.I have a problem receiving an input from server to client once the server gets the client's address.
Am not getting the "Date and time received.." output at the client.

PS:My output is good except that it doesnt print that line alone.Am trying too :D

Okay, I copied your code and ran "as is".

Start the server first and then the client, works fine. I would put into the server an output to indicate that it's waiting for the connection:

Java

System.out.println("Waiting for connection");
Socket s=ss.accept();
System.out.println("Connection received");

Also the date object will remain at the same time as you only instantiate it once. Better would be to move that line inside the while loop
