Combined with putting it in a background thread, it seems to work pretty well for me without the need for the asynchronous versions. Good stuff, i especially like the TcpListener example.

I will see if I can come up with an example that explores a threaded TCP/IP server further. Martijn Hi Ayeni,

Good point. I will see if I can come up with an example that explores a threaded TCP/IP server further.

If you bind to another address (or all) you need to decide which one to use -- and that is a configuration issue that goes beyond this demo. If you setup a web/ftp server you also need to configure which address you would like to use ; there is no method to advertise to the world which address/port you are using. If you would like to know which IP addreses are available on your machine have a look at example #4 of the following post: http://www.dijksterhuis.org/converting-an-ip-address-to-a-hostname-and-back-with-c/ Cheers, Martijn @Guy

I think you will find local host is locked out of incoming traffic on most boxes. You can’t use “IPAddress.Any” ether becuse the other endpoint dos not now witch nic you are listening on. You could say wall each nic should be part of difrent subnets, but that defets the perpose of using more then one nic on a server to combat botel necks. So the real question is Using todayes server machines, How do you create a server with TcpListener?
