Hello David, The port is in use because the server listens on that port already, otherwise the client could not send it to that server. You can make the server listen on another port and then your application should act like a proxy intercepting all data. See SocketSpy or gpHttpProxy for example.
you can of course set the client to connect on other port and do the same. --- Rgds, Wilfried [TeamICS] http://www.overbyte.be/eng/overbyte/teamics.html http://www.mestdagh.biz Tuesday, January 24, 2006, 11:16, David Lewis wrote: > Hi, > I have a client service that connects and gathers data and then throws > this data out in a stream on port 60500.
