I've searched on MSDN and found that setsockopt has those options: SO_RCVTIMEO Receives time-out in milliseconds (available in the Microsoft implementation of Windows Sockets 2). SO_SNDTIMEO Sends time-out in milliseconds (available in the Microsoft implementation of Windows Sockets 2). Maybe this is what you search for ? The text is not clear is those BSD options are supported or not ! -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.overbyte.be -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://www.elists.org/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be
