The other side might get really upset with you opening and closing new connections, plus that is kind of stupid.
didnt think of that...Quote:

for example httpd status send to socket blah blah...
or should i send all the services in a big chunk of data?
or send them one at a time?

So long as the receiver can tell when one ends and the next starts, send them all in quick succession.
TCP is just a stream of bytes, it's up to the sender/receiver to agree a protocol.
HTTP for example uses printable characters separated by newlines.
what i just did was i send them in a big chunk of data... when i got it from my client side..
it was written in like.. httpd#up#smtp#down#xinetd#up and so on..
i seperated them by a delimiter "#"
i saw a site that specify if that service is down by socket..
it says "connection timeout to socket".. i dont know how to that?
is there a tutorial leading to that way? thanks for the replies..
