Hi,

I am having a strange issue using an application that uses a DLL compiled in
Borland C++ 4.5.  The DLL contains Winsock API calls to create, read from
and send to sockets.  The application works perfectly fine on Windows 9x and
can create sockets properly.  Running a "netstat -an", I am able to see the
ports that I the application is opening.  However, running the same
application on Windows 2000, when the application creates the sockets, they
disappear a few seconds later.  I can tell by running "netstat -an"
repeatedly until the port disappears.  Does anyone know if there are any
icompatabilities between Borland C++ 4.5 and Windows 2000?

Any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks

BEE
