my complements. my question is why the use of the while() construct in http://www.perldebugged.com/downloads/proxylog.txt hence the need to have the last LABEL construction??? especially as this appears to avoid the call to your shutdown function - which seems to be doing an implicit close based upon the exit..... which has me a tad concerned about the $client->shutdown(2) if $client; $server->shutdown(2) if $server; since it would seem that the former would prevent the full on closer of the server side???? I may just be a bit too fussy here - but there are several webSites I run into where they clearly are not doing their socket connections correctly - as I get them wedgied in the fin_wait state.... So I thought I would ask for a bit of 'what was the idea behind this approach' .... ciao drieux --- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
