While some network services use a specific port to communicate on, clients should perform a FindServer operation using port &B0 to find the specific server it wants to communicate with, and the use the port number contained in the reply. A server should claim the ports it wants to use from the network system. On RISC OS this is simple, use Econet_AllocatePort. On 8-bit systems, choosing a random number between &01 and &7F at startup will often suffice for server-client communications.
