   In our application (running on WL 5.1 Servicepack 8) we have to access a remote
   machine via a socket connection, this to retrieve remote data.
   I know this is not in the specs but we have to do so !

   When the remote machine is ok the socket connection is accepted
   very quickly. But when the remote system is ofline it takes about 2
   minutes to get an answer back from the socket. (a timeout occurs)

   If i have a lot of requests this fills all my available threads on
   waiting back-office systems.

   Does anyone know how to tackle this problem, i want to check if the
   remote system is alive and capable of answering !

   regards,
   Marco Pas
