.NET Framework 1.1 Socket problem

[Ken Hudson]

When ever I try to use Socket classes in a .NET program compiled with
SDK 1.1 I get following exception (The same program when compiled with
SDK 1.0 runs without any problem.
)

Unhandled Exception: System.TypeInitializationException: The type
initializer for "System.Net.Dns" threw an exception. --->
System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for
"System.Net.Sockets.Socket" threw an exception. --->
System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: An operation on a socket could not
be performed because the system lacked sufficient buffer space or
because a queue was full

Please Help

go in the machine.config and configure
<system.net>
<defaultProxy>
<proxy>
I solved this problem setting thi to
<proxy usesystemdefault="false"/>

I tried setting <proxy usesystemdefault="false"/>
but it didn't work. I still get the same error with framework 1.1.

Its a serious bug that Microsoft dont seem to be in a hurry to fix.
