Well, we are polling now for command results and they want real-time returns. They want me to hook into a socket run a command/unix script and wait for the return. Some scripts run continuously on the server and return multiple times before completing. Currently, I have to poll to get those multiple lines of return. The webserver on the device is currently placed at the lowest priority of the processor (if that's the correct way of phrasing it). So if I can plug into a socket and sit and wait, then I don't have to keep opening and closing that HTTP socket for every command. > **************************************************** > > This email is sent for and on behalf of Halliwells LLP. > > Halliwells LLP is a limited liability partnership registered in England and > Wales under registered number OC307980 whose registered office address is at Halliwells LLP, 3 Hardman Square, Spinningfields, Manchester, M3 3EB.
