Why are we getting the winsock error 10061
After some debugging the problem is the service can not bind to the socket on its default port 2994
This is de default (startup) port for console to listening on. This port was blocked, as can be seen by using netsh.
Problem:
Open a DOS prompt (as administrator)
netsh interface ipv4 show excludedportrange protocol=tcp
The range 2912-3011 was excluded!
Probably due to windows NAT service winnat,
Solution:
Open a DOS prompt (as administrator)
net stop winnat
Check again:
Open a DOS prompt (as administrator)
netsh interface ipv4 show excludedportrange protocol=tcp
And restart your tftpd service (or gui) again. Check (using a dos prompt) if it listens on the new port.
