Re: IP address used by Sockets

Yes, you can use bind() to specify the client's IP address. Use socket(),
bind(), connect(). The bind call would look like the bind call for a server
program. You can also specify the port the client will use if you wish.

Our 400 has two IP addresses.

Using Scott Klement's socket utilities service program, I have created
working client and server programs.

Here is my dilemma - our network folks established a secure connection
(tunnel?) between us and another system. The problem is that the one of
my
socket programs is now using the "other" ip address on our 400.
Consequently, this program cannot connect!

So, my question is - Is there a way to specify the outbound IP address the
socket uses?

Thanks,

Joe
