    Thanks, that worked fine!

    Now I have another error message:

C:\BINKD>binkd -P 4:801/188 binkd.cfg
 23:03 [2026] BEGIN, binkd/1.0a-318/DOS -P 4:801/188 binkd.cfg
!23:03 [2026] sock_init: Permission denied

    I checked, and the IP address was granted by the DHCP server.

    What could it be?
