RE: Differing results calling same program from different environments

Connect() will fail without signals as well... but it will take longer.

Give it a try without the signals/alarm stuff... using this in combination with Apache might be an issue.

The irony is that the code (signals/alarm) is there so that the sockets
connection CAN fail gracefully. Originally, I didn't have it and if the
host/port was offline then the program would hang. The signals/alarm
stuff solved that issue for me.

But, that gives me an idea...maybe the signals/alarm routine isn't being
executed for some reason in the CGIDEV2 environment..I'll see if I can
run debug on the CHK_PORT program call....
