Mike,  
  Do let us know what you find out in regard to this.  I haven't started
using sockets on the masscomp yet, but I will shortly.

  Sockets always seem to be hard to make work at first ... I've used
UDP/IP (unreliable datagram) sockets under 4.2 successfully on VAXen,
and used select() with no problem.  Are you using streams, with the
client/server model?

  thanks    strick
