That was caused by a missing call to "StartServer"....
It now runs and can be connected to using the old Windows client
application.

That means I will have to go over the code and replace TTimer with the
fpTimer instead.
Something like:

{$IFDEF FPC}
  FCommTimer: TFPTimer;
{$ELSE} //Delphi
  FCommTimer: TTimer;
{$ENDIF}

And also fixing the uses clause the same way.

Thanks for the clarification!
