To Ray Smith/ Client-Server

Sorry for this post, but I've lost Ray's email address.

Hi Ray (and everybody),
I must say that I'm really really really interested in your eulibnet
routines for euphoria.
I am writing a server/client chat tool, and I've picked up your demo and
I'm trying to
make some improvements on it. You say that the  Libnet is a very
portable library...
are you working on a port fot Unix/Linux systems? I'm actually trying to
compile the
C source of Libnet under linux with the gcc compiler...if I succeed,let
me know and I'll send you the "libnet.so" I you need it.
-- Questions:
It's possible to open several ports at the same time?(one for
listening,another one for transmit...)  it would speed up the server?
If the client doesn't knows the port of the server, it would be possible
to create a routine on the client (like a port scanner/sniffer) so that
he can find the correct listening port in the server? Even more, if the
client doesn't knows the port and the IP
of the server, it would be possible to program the server so it
transmits a kind of signal to the www so that anyone from the net with
the client,can connect to?

thanks & regards,
Luis
