[WT-support] UDP Socket Error

[Olivier F5MZN]

Hello again,

> For your information, here is a netstat -abp on my computer (named "thod"):
Please correct to: "netstat -abp udp"

"netstat -abnp udp" gives:
  UDP    0.0.0.0:9871           *:*                          2828
  [wtRotators.exe]

  UDP    0.0.0.0:9871           *:*                          4052
  [wt.exe]

It means that WT listen to any addresses (not only on the loopback 
ones). When you specify "127.255.255.255" in the config, the result is 
that broadcasts are sent to 127.255.255.255.

Are running under Vista SP1? No antivirus?

He is an explanation of the WSAEACCES error:

WT, wxTelnet and wxRotators bind to the socket with both SO_BROADCAST 
and SO_REUSEADDR options. It seems that another process or security 
policy prevent you to do that.
