Hi I wanted to findout if persistent/keepalive connections are supported by tomcat3.2 /3.3 In my application I am trying to invoke a servlet from a C application through plain sockets In my post header I am specifying Connection : keep-alive parameter, however when I try to reuse the connection and post again using the same socket, I get an error saying the socket has been shutdown. So my question is if Tomcat supports connection keep alive and if there is anyother way to support persistent connections in the above scenario. thanks _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com
