I've searched the code and don't know whether that I found is the
official or the more updated repository.
So, I found this http://www.indyproject.org/Sockets/Download/svn.EN.aspx
If I understood right, the good version to use with FPC is 10.  Am I correct?

About your known in this area, because you've already done the same as
I wish to develop, do you have others tips?

For example:
1. Did you have problems with Windows firewall?
2. How did you garantee that others applications aren't being using
the same port as your application to avoind conflicts?
3. How was the best way to start the application as a server and
keeping it alive?

Thanks.
