I don't know if we support 16-bit systems (The last DOS build on the download page was 7.10.5 so maybe not) but shouldn't the "int" be a "long" just in case we do as technically it will be smaller than an "unsigned short" on those systems? Not only that but I see that the port variable is also defined as a long ;-)

I'm pretty sure lots of things will break if int is less than 32 bits so I rather think that using 64 bit for a long is a waste...

I basically only needed one extra bit for "unknown" since port 0 is actually a legitimate port number.

Also, I'm not sure if I missed something but is it possible to set this variable to a large number like 2 million (on 32-bit systems), so do we need to validate against values above 65535?

Yes, we need to check that and we do!
