Re: [Winsock UDP] Why .Close to avoid Err 40020?

Actually, the DCHP doesn't change the IP address that much. Most will keep
the IP address for at least 3 days, and in a corporate environment, unless
there is a shortage of local addresses, most machines will keep their same
address through renewals.

You can, you just need to make sure the client is binding to a different

Thank you very much for your help :-)

Actually, while thinking it through... chances are most of our
customers use DHCP, with no static binding with hosts' MAC address, so
that clients will have to use broadcasting to locate the server every
time.

So... a better solution would probably be to display the Network
Neighborhood and ask users to click on the name of the host that is
acting as server, and remember this hostname. If IP's can change every
time a computer is rebooted, its Netbios/hostname name won't.

Thanks again to both of you.
