My tests were successful, but my first beta site is reporting an error "cannot assign requested address." What does this error mean?

Off the top of my head it sounds as though either you hard-coded the TCP/IP address in there, or the requested port is already in use. Cheers, Ignacio -- No, don't send me e-mail directly. No, just don't.

What about the bindings should I be checking? The implementation I have is that a teacher application (telnet client) connects to several student applications (telnet server). I create a class on the teacher called TStudent that creates a TIdTelnet component in it's constructor and do not currently set the BoundIP or BoundPort. The teacher is receiving the "Cannot assign requested address" message. Thanks In Advance, Daaron "Chad Z.
