Re: SOCKET Connect() connects but shouldn't.

You presume correctly. 

I guess I'm not understanding why you keep mentioning the IP address. What 
difference would that make?  When I have the socket server running on the PC, 
the program works. If I stop the socket server on the PC two seconds later and 
then rerun the program again, it appears to work but doesn't really. I can't 
imagine how the IP address would change on the same interactive session in the 
space of 20 seconds unless I'm totally not understanding this process.

I presume you are aware that this will only work when run from an 
interactive session (i.e. with a display device)?

Run this code in debug and see what values you get for I_Net_Addr and 
sin_addr prior to the connect() call.
