Hi.
I just wrote an applet that tried to implement a push framework using
that design, answering the first question it worked fine, the applet was able
to accept incoming conections using sockets..... but in the long term I decided
not
to use that design because it didn't work with no cooperative firewalls, so I
finished
implementing the push application using a more simple poll design... I hope
this help...
bye
