Delphi 4 / 5 and Socket Connections

[Thomas Vedel]

We have been using MIDAS 2 / Delphi 4 C/S with socket connections between
client and server apps.

Now we are moving to Delphi 5 Enterprise and are a bit confused. Hopefully
some of you guys know the answers - we haven't found them in the
documentation.

1. In Delphi 4, it was possible to run the Borland Socket Server as a
service on NT. Is that not possible anymore? (there is no scktsrvc.exe in
Delphi 5)

2: Having both Delphi 4 and Delphi 5 client and servers: Is it possible
having both D4 and D5 servers (using socket connections) running on one
application server? Are there special conciderations in this case?

Thanks in advance for any help !
