Hi,

does someone have a fix for the following TUdpSocket (maybe also 
TCustomIpClient, TIpSocket) problem?

The value of LocalPort does not affect anything, the real port number to 
which it the socket is bound is always allocated dynamically. (This can be 
tested by sending datagrams to e.g. NMUDP socket, whose localport is 
known, and printing the origin's port number.)

This causes that reception with UdpSocket is impossible, unless the sender 
first gets to know the dynamic port#.


Regards,
antti
