And it is PHP problem because .?. ?
This is what getsockname() returns, socket_getsockname() is just a
wrapper.

Description:
------------
I am connecting to myself and then closing, to sniff out available
ports on my system that I can use-- I'm sure you're acquainted with
this method.

It should always produce a different port (nPort), since no connection
is erected (because it's UDP), but it always returns that it is on the
SAME port.

Reproduce code:
---------------
$n = 10;
while($n--)
{
        $strIP = $nPort = -1;

        $Socket = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, SOL_UDP);
        socket_connect($Socket, '172.0.0.1', 8400);
        socket_getsockname($Socket, $strAddr, $nPort);
        socket_close($Socket);

        print("> Available port: $strAddr:$nPort\n");
}

Expected result:
----------------
It produces ten lines of output, that should each contain one unique,
available port number. 

Actual result:
--------------
Each line indicates the same port, even if a socket has been opened for
listening on it.


The problem I am having, therefore, is that I sniff the next available
port from this code, and set up a listener on it. I then do the same
thing again in order to open another listener on a different port, but
it always returns to me the same port number, and I can not not bind
it, obviously.

Is this intended?
