Sorry for the bad formatting and grammar in the previous mail. No, we didn't try it our dept.'s admin wants to know where is sockets.so file on disk and why should we try this when the phpinfo() displays sockets being enabled? Can you please help me find sockets.so file. I can't find it. It's a shared object. Right? Are they stored on disk as individual files or all together compiled into a binary. Thanks for the link I will request him again to try it out. Thank you.
