You're quite right that HTTP/1.0 (RFC 1945) doesn't support persistent connections, and doesn't define a Connection: header. I believe the server is supposed to drop the TCP connection at the end of the body for HTTP < 1.1. Perhaps the safest thing is to add a "Connection: close" header, *and* drop the TCP connection, if the client requests HTTP < 1.1 Regards, Brian.
