So sending an occasional informational message from the server fixed the problem for you? Is this some built in time-out feature of sockets or something? I could send information messages but I want to first understand why it should be happening first. I may put them back in just to see if the problem continues. I have direct access to the cgos server logs, so when it happens I notice that the server knows right away that the client has disconnected. But the client has no clue. Even when I take out all of the error trapping to see if the client crashes it won't happen. - Don > > Sent from my iPhone > > On Aug 9, 2008, at 9:19 AM, Don Dailey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Ben, > > > > I am having the same exact problem, so I don't think it's anything you > > are doing wrong.
