All,
We am currently in the process of implementing a simh based emulator for
the Multics CPU (https://sourceforge.net/projects/dps8m/). We've got it
set up so we can telnet into the OS using the SIMH "Telnet terminal
multiplexer library," but are having problems when connections are lost
not freeing up lines, etc. I need to be able to detect when a telnet
connection is dropped, not closed normally.
Any thoughts on how to detect a dropped telnet connection?
Regards,
Harry Reed
