Dimming LEDs with ESP8266 and Domoticz

[Foxdesign]

Hi all,
I've recently achieved the dimming of LED's over a network (using someone's previous project here :

http://blog.quindorian.org/2015/03/esp8 ... -of-x.html)

but i'm having an issue with interfacing this and Domoticz. I attached a screenshot PNG file to show what I mean:

1) I can dim the LED's using a Cygwin Terminal (pictured top right), sending a command to the device on the wifi to dim the LED -> 192.168.1.56 :port 43333
2) The Lua script in Domoticz seems to be right i.e it provides the same info I type into a Cygwin Terminal ( I cut and pasted it from the Domoticz log file into a Cygwin terminal and it worked perfectly) but Domoticz doesn't send the command to the esp8266.

-- Could this be something to do with the default port and webserver address of Domoticz? (127.0.0.1 :8080)

-- does anyone have experience with this issue? I'd appreciate any pointing in the right direction! I can provide the code if that helps..

Cheers,
