Set sender's port

[sieg1974]

Hi,

I'm reading some tutorials about sockets in the web, and so far didn't
find a way to set the sender's port. Is it possible to do? If so, which
command should I use?

Thanks,

Andre

Here we discuss standard C and standard C doesn't
have any functions dealing with sockets. I suggest
asking your question in a group which deals with the
operating system you're using.

The standard C language has no support for sockets. You'll have
better luck asking in a newsgroup that's specific to your system,
perhaps comp.unix.programmer or comp.os.ms-windows.programmer.win32.

We must do something. This is something. Therefore, we must do this.

This is not a C question. Yes, we understand that you are writing a C
program, but your question doesn't concern the C language.

Depending on the networking package you are using (winsock or BSD
sockets, or other) you'll need to find an appropriate newsgroup. Try
searching Google Groups for the functions you're using.

Just as an aside, and OT, normally the way it works is that one entitiy
"listens" on a port, those interested in contacting it connect to that
port. I doubt you really need to do what you are asking, but here isn't
the place to discuss it.
