Re: Socket connect vs. bind? What is the difference

Sure, it's eminently possible. Remember that an IPEndpoint is a combination
of an IP Address and a Port. Since there are 65,536 TCP ports on any given
machine, you could theoretically test it against 10's of thousands of
clients using the same (local) IP Address and different ports.

Thanks again for helping me. I do understand the in and outs of the
protocols etc.. I;ve been a developer for the last two years, but all
of my experience has been ceneterd on thin client. Now I have a job
working with thick client, and I've just learnt how to use C# Async
methods and all that good stuff; hence I'm new so I'm a tad confused of
some of the nuances.

My app works, it's just I want it to work in a debug regard. What it
does is it has a sender, which there will be only one, will send info
via a UDP multi cast to multiple recipients subscribed to a given
muticast group. Now, when it's in productio it will work because all
of the little recipients will have different local ip's but, I want to
be able to test it locally with more then one recipient running.

That's ultimately where I'm confused. I understand that each socket
needs a distinct endpoint of it's own. So, any suggestions on how to
do this? Is it possible?

The only reason I think it is is because I've been supporting this
other app and I created several recipients all using 127.0.0.1:10002.
Although they were asynch connecting over TCP/IP, so I don't know.
