Parsons, thanx for your suggestion and patience in this matter, yes I could see from netstat that status of port 10 is listening, but the real problem is that the code doesn't move to the next line after connecting, i.e.

TcpListener tcpListener = new TcpListener(10);
            tcpListener.Start();
            Socket socketForClient = tcpListener.AcceptSocket();

//The code does not go to the lines below
            if (socketForClient.Connected)
            {
                        }
Any idea..... (Mind really not working, its almost 11 hours in the office now)

Regards
Mike

Fortune favours the brave, so don't regret on missed oppurtunities.

Ahhh. You are having a problem actually connecting the client to the server and dealing with that connection.

Instead of a Socket try:

if(server.Pending())
{
 TcpClient connection = server.AcceptTcpClient();
}
