    In ihsaacom.C, the IP address passed to the tec_get_port
    function is 0 instead of the correct IP address.  tec_get_port
    cannot successfully get the port number from IP address 0.
    

Problem conclusion

  • ihsaacom.C is being changed so the correct IP address is passed
    to the tec_get_port function.
