Seems good.

Well, it's not shut down, as I just tried it and it works fine here.
Maybe it was down, though, and you should try again?
If it still doesn't work, then check your firewall. It shouldn't give
you any problems, as you are simply trying to establish a connection to
port 5201 on a remote machine, but check. Enable firewall logging, if
possible, and see if anything gets blocked. Verify that you can reach
the webserver running on the same host.
Also try with UDP ("-u -b 0").
