Dear all,

Question about TCP/IP network programming

We have a server process open socket and wait for connection from clients processes.
In normal case, when server get connection request from client it will
fork new child process for service that client.
I mean that, if we have three client processes the server will fork three child processes too.

For our problems we founded :
Case 1
If some server child process deads (by terminate it self or was killed) we found that,
when client request for connect... the server not accept or fork child process for service this client, until
all child processes dead. Why server not receive connection from client ?

Case 2
We have server child processes more than one processes available and some dead,
if we start client for request connection , we found no response from server (server not accept or fork child process ) then
if client terminate by exit() command , server will show status receive connect from client
but it not work ... why server not immediate response when client request for connection.

Thank in advance for your answers.

i had the same problems...use select() instead.

cuase its against the law!
