You can't just listen on an arbitrary port without specifying an IP as well,
even if it is "0.0.0.0" to bind to all available IP addresses.

With that said - what exactly are you trying to accomplish?  What actual
server component are you using?  OR are you doing raw socket programming?

So what is the actual problem?  What kind of broadcast are you referring to
exactly?

Excacty I dont know where should I start ! :-\
I dont know much about Broadcasting ...

in Server app:

Component->Host=MyComputerHost;
Component->Message="Message To Broadcast";
Component->Connect();
Component->Send();//Or Component->Broadcast();
Component->Disconnect()
For example , and in Client

Component->Listen();

Component::OnMessage(AnsiString &Msg){
   ShowMessage(Msg);
}


But they are only stupid psodo code
Please tell me where can I start :-) thx Gambit.
