Doesn't the protocol handle that ? Well, in case of TCP, the IP stack should handle it. But ups we came far away from my original problem.

At least it should emit an IO error if the tcp link goes down. cu -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt == metux IT service - http://www.metux.de/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please visit the OpenSource QM Taskforce: http://wiki.metux.de/public/OpenSource_QM_Taskforce Patches / Fixes for a lot dozens of packages in dozens of versions: http://patches.metux.de/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
