Howdy All,
I hope I can post this question to this forum.
A server is listening on so and so port number waiting for Client requests.
Can anyone please tell, what exactly "port number" means? Does it refer to a
process id in the OS on which which the server is running?
Any ideas and opinions.
thanks,
jayprakash
