Write to the socket. If the peer has closed the connection, you should get a SIGPIPE or somesuch. Of course, the client can disappear *without* closing the connection (dial-up disconnect abruptly) ... but eventually (after 2MSL or whatever you have your kernel tuned to) the system will time-out the socket and it'll appear disconnected. Does AOLserver bubble up the error writing to the socket back to the thread doing the writing (preferably as a Tcl error that can be catch'ed -- er, caught)? That'd probably be really annoying, now that I think about it, in the normal case. -- Dossy -- Dossy Shiobara mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Panoptic Computer Network web: http://www.panoptic.com/ "He realized the fastest way to change is to laugh at your own folly -- then you can let go and quickly move on."
