I'm pretty sure the on-off application would not need to change, as it  
is a
client, not a server, and does not call listen or accept.  It calls  
connect
and send, which should be identical semantially for both the TCP  
socket and UDP socket.
Clearly, the UDP connect does not send a SYN pkt, but rather just sets  
the
default remote address (IP and port).  I think what's already checked  
in does
it this way.
