First, ensure that "papo" is being resolved into IP address. If no, use directly IP addresses (like "192.168.1.1") or add appropriate line into hosts file or ... (there are many choices including DNS serveres etc, but they're not so important for you now).
Second, you can check proper work of server by connecting to it's port from telnet.exe
Third. Actually I'd recommend you to begin with localhost address (127.0.0.1). It is loopback address and you can debug your TCP/IP applications having only one computer wit network adapter.
