What is happening is the program is dumping in the middle of the night when doing a send() and the work buffer is returning an abnormal number which in turn is dumping on length or start position is out of range for the string operation
len = Send(sock:%addr(wrkbuf):wrkbuflen:0)
"Len" is coming back as 16,777,216 so maybe is something prior to the send is making the wrkbuflen wrong. We are suspecting something going on at machine backup/down time in the middle of the night.
thnx all I shall investigate further.

Subject: Re: send() api
If everything is working properly, that would mean that you sent
16,777,216 bytes -- but I'd be shocked if that's really the case. It
would either mean that you have a network that's faster than your CPU
speed, or that you have your TCP send buffer set large enough to hold 16
MB of data -- which AFIAK is not allowed. (And even if it were, it
would be seriously sub-optimal.)
More likely, your prototype for send() is wrong.
Or, perhaps you're corrupting memory.

I the sockets programming, we are getting a return value on the

us.
Can anybody clue me in on what this means? TCPIP down? No
communication with client ?
