You've hit the nail on the head.  On this count, I am doing exactly
what chat is doing, i.e., nothing.  Thus by a stroke of good or bad
luck, whichever way you want to put it, chat has the port number 1024
and I have 0.  I now added an explicit port assignment as you
suggested and voila I get my 10061.  Our IT man told me that within
the LAN I can pick any (unused) port I want, so I did and I'll worry
about external connections when we get there.

Thanks for that one.  I sort of remembered and tried www.dejanews.com.
There I found a few messages older than early summer 2004 but nothing
in terms of more examples.  (The one of yours I mentioned uses the
Address and Port properties for an all numerical identification.)

Thanks for the help,

Cheers,                  Jochen
