Thank you for the patch!  Yes, it works.  Right after I sent
out my message I tried an almost identical patch which also
worked but, as I said I don't understand this code, didn't
have time to understand it and my patch seemed a bit hacky so
I kept quiet.  Actually this whole routine seems hacky -- why
look up "udp" when you are told explicitly to use tcp?  Oh
well, I should keep quiet until I really understand it:-)

Thanks again!
