Searh for Indy and it will find Indy10 for you. THe package is named indylaz. That said (I also use Indy a lot) if one converts a program from Delphi where one has used the TServerSocket or TClientSocket classes it is a rather steep climb since Indy10 is entirely blocking and the Delphi components were event driven. I am myself struggling with this problem right now converting an old Windows service application that is configured from a Delphi programmed client operating over TCP/IP sockets. And it uses TClientSocket and TServerSocket.... I am going to try LNet hoping it will not bee too different from the Delphi native components...
