Re: [twsocket] Don't trust routers!
We -in our code- implement/interpret a connection timeout as idle timeout. Could this be the case in Lancom as well?

According to the manual the connection will be closed when the timeout expires. But nothing like that happened. Instead, after the time-out expired a client application happily sent data that was never acknowledged. --- Arno Garrels [TeamICS] http://www.overbyte.be/eng/overbyte/teamics.html -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://www.elists.org/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://www.elists.org/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be

Re: [twsocket] Don't trust routers!
Perhaps the TCP connection has some end-to-end keep-alive packets sent which does not leave the stream idle?

It's no problem to work around by sending NOOP packets, and/or by implementing a custom time-out in the application protocol. Only it's annoying to spend time to find the reason of such dead lines (customers like to claim that your software is the culprit). --- Arno Garrels [TeamICS] http://www.overbyte.be/eng/overbyte/teamics.html Regards, SZ - Original Message - From: Arno Garrels [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: ICS support mailing twsocket@elists.org Sent: Friday, March 02, 2007 3:36 PM Subject: Re: [twsocket] Don't trust routers!
