I geuss I'm going about this the wrong way??

I've written a little program (~200 lines) to help me get a big
picture (understanding) on the connection between a NetWire and a
daemon. In other words, A network daemon. IPX in this case.

I've used IPXrouted as a guide, All it basically does is:
	Socket = socket(af, ...
	bind(Socket, ...
	setsockopt(Socket, ...
	FD_ZERO(&fdvar);
	FD_SET(Socket, &fdvar);
	select(nfds, &fdvar, ...
	if(FD_ISSET(Socket, &fdvar))
		display_it_in_human_readable_form. :)

It does as expected, Except if I have IPXrouted running then it
fails at bind with: Address already in use.

I know I'm probably way way off in left field and was wondering
if some kind sole would kick me in the right direction.

Thanks.

-Enjoy
Gary
