Urgent! Socket Problem

[Ms .NET]

Hi,

i have a Listerner in my base. Two application are derived in my base.
when i start my first app, no problem
when i start the second app the following error pops up

"Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port)
is normally permitted"

i need to have multiple listeners on the same port, is it possible and is
there a way to work around it.

thanks

Hi,

you could try to set the socket option ReuseAddress:
Socket.SetSocketOption(SocketOptionName.ReuseAddress). But I don't know
where your data goes if you then open two server sockets listening on the
same port...
