I try to understand what you're trying to tell me.
The game makes a connection with port 21 so thats not the problem.
The ports i can switch, also change if neccery.
But i will try to do what you sayd in the pm.
Hopely it works, because its a very difficult command and not easy.

Hopely i can figure the code out of that :rolleyes:

Well, I try to do my best here. I'm not an english speaker either.

Basicly, the difficulty lies on that your way to look for a free port on server is pretty linear, while Winsock control is events-oriented.

The first thing you should do is to remove the three "If Winsock1.RemotePort =" blocks. I guess the first .Connect you try is on the port 21, right? well, if you cannot connect for some reason, that will send you to the Winsock1_Error event. There you can check the RemotePort and decide where to try to .Connect again.

I insist, it's not the best method to do what you require.
