When you call Getsockname() on a duplicated socket, the call may not succeed and you may receive error 10038 (WSAENOTSOCK).
This problem occurs when the following conditions exist:
- If the socket handle is duplicated using DuplicateHandle().
- The socket is bound and listening on the loopback address 127.0.0.1.
- The network cable is unplugged.
- Microsoft Proxy Client is installed.
RESOLUTION
To resolve the problem, use the WSADuplicateSocket() call to share a socket between processes.
