Subject: Re: Apparent timing problem with socket communications


   Since no one else wants to go first...
   The part that caught my eye was the comment that
the client "fails to receive the reply sent by the
server."
   Does it "fail to receive" or does it "fail to do
anything about it"?
   Perhaps a trace might shed some light on the issue.
   I have had good luck using Ethereal
(www.ethereal.com) on my PC to determine such things,
although I am sure there are many others.
Hope that helps, or at least encourages smarter people
to jump in.
