0003375: Zandronum server listens on random ports on all interfaces except one
If the PC has multiple network interfaces, and Zandronum server is told to listen on a certain port (for example, 10666), it only listens on that port on ONE of the network interfaces.

On other interfaces, it does listen, but on random outgoing ports (like 62255). This random outgoing port is displayed in server list, instead of the intended port. It can be used to connect to the server and play.

Please fix this, as it is very annoying to forward a new random port every time I (re)start a Zandronum server just because my PC has a bunch of virtual network interfaces for Hamachi and VirtualBox.
I have only tested this bug on Windows 10. I don't know if this bug occurs if broadcasting to master server is disabled. Maybe it doesn't listen on other interfaces at all then, which is even worse.
No tags attached.

I forgot to mention that the reason it's annoying is because Zandronum listens on port 10666 only on some fake network interface and listens on a random port on the real one.
