Hi, But you're not consuming the size_t on the other end. You're only peeking it, i.e. you're doing the recv to peek at the message, but never calling recv to remove that data from the queue... or am I missing something? -- Regards, Tom Spink University of Edinburgh -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
