Hi out there,

upgrading from CTWin 9.81.002 to CTWin 9.90.001 I ran into trouble with 
ethernet networking. I should point out, that I made a full uninstall 
before installing the new version. All old DLLs have been removed 
successfully.

I have configured my networking interface with TWO IP-addresses in order 
to allow two applications to bind the socket.

This worked perfectly with CTWin 9.81.002. What happens now with CTWin 
9.90.001 is a bit strange:

CTWin binds to ALL available IPs thus blocking all other applications 
(e.g. WinTelNetX) from binding to my adapter card. The second thing which 
happens: CTWin receives all data packets coming over the network two times 
(remember: two IPs associated with my card).

I have no idea how to overcome this problem. If I assign five IPs to my 
networking interface CTWin graciously binds to these five IPs and starts 
receiving everything 5 times.

On the other hand: I just one of these five IPs of my adapter card is 
bound to another application CT failes to network at all.

Any idea?

Suggestion: It would be most comfortable to have the option to tell CTWin 
to which interface (IP) it should bind to. This could be done with the 
command line switch -enet 10.0.0.1 for example.
