Hi,
I am facing a wierd problem.
I have impemented a 'client-server' which is a loadable kernel module in
Linux (version 2.4.2)
Now after getting the desired data immediately i close the connection and
also set the socket option SO_LINGER to {1,0} i.e. ON_OFF = 1 & lingertime =
0
The problem is, even if i close the connection in which linger time is zero,
it doesnt return immediately but waits for abt 3 min.
( and not 2*MSL)
I used to send another request the very next minute after closing the first
connection and it used to say "Broken Pipe"...this way tracked the problem.
How can I solve my problem ? Is there any way to help the connection not
linger even for 1 nanosecond ?
Any kind of help will be appreciated.
Aneuya
