    Ungraceful connection close [nm]

    I have a small problem with the Ungraceful remote connection close.

    This causes my program to stop responding.

    Example:
    Let say my program(server) is listenning on a port, and I connect that port with a telnet client, but when I'm finished i don't disconnect from the server, but just clicking the X... that makes the server to stop responding.

    How can I prevent this?


    Thanks.



    I'm using Win98, Borland C/C++ 5.5, and the winsock lib.

    Okay. Your description is not clear. What do you mean "and I connect that port with a telnet client?" Are you working on the server or the client?

    What I/O model does the program utilize?

    Never mind... I found the problem, I forgot to do an error check on recv()
