I've been wondering why the TCP/IP KEEPALIVE option is not used (at least as an option) in libX.a. xdm is attempting to achieve the same functionality by using the XSync call. Why not use KEEPALIVE, at least with LANs ? I have been using this option since R3, with great benefits : I can turn off my X-terminal, turn it on again and get the XDM greating. Does the KEEPALIVE option create a noticeable net overhead ? -- Peter Holm Tel: int +45 42 84 50 11 (UTC + 1) Dansk Data Elektronik A/S Fax: int +45 42 84 52 20 Herlev Hovedgade 199 Telex: 35258 dde dk DK-2730 Herlev, Denmark E-mail: pho@dde.dk -- Peter Holm Tel: int +45 42 84 50 11 (UTC + 1) Dansk Data Elektronik A/S Fax: int +45 42 84 52 20 Herlev Hovedgade 199 Telex: 35258 dde dk DK-2730 Herlev, Denmark E-mail: pho@dde.dk
