A note for server admins and client developers: in order to have proper
UDP_PORTSWAP behavior, the server must be using ntserv/socket.c version 1.17
or higher.  This is _newer_ than the version bundled with Vanilla 2.9.pl3
that is currently available.

Also, you may wish to point out that connecting to continuum through a
firewall requires that the primary address "mage.real-time.com" be used
instead of "continuum.real.time.com".
