Hello, Perhaps my question would be better served by another list - if so, can you kindly point me to a more appropriate place, please?
I am working on a C# app to communicate with other machines on my local network. Each host machine is running a small C++ application (on embeddedXP) and is waiting to be contacted and then controlled by me. My connections involve several NET objects - the main one being the 'Socket' class. I create these Socket objects currently all with the same port number. Apparently (and obviously?), I can't create multiple socket objects that use the same port number with different IP addresses. So I intend to choose from a range of port numbers to open up any Socket objects I need. Being new to trying to effect this type of communication, I do not know how the port for the Socket I open in my C# app (eg, 6001) relates to the port that is opened on the host application (the code for which I can't review at this time). What else do I need to be aware of concerning the port numbers I use with the Socket objects I create, please? Peter
