ZenTara, You're quite right. When I was pasting the whole code, I tought the same objection you've justifiedly raised here. But at the moment didnt have time for anything else. I am currently working in writing a super compressed version of both scripts, in addition to other chores my boss gives me every half hour or so. Didnt mean to disrespect you or The Monks valuable time by not posting a proper question. On the contrary, I do know everybody has other duties to take care of and I'm grateful you devote time to my question. Anyway, this code you're posting here I had not seen and will try it. Just a question, though, the socket object in it....is it supposed to be extracted from the acceptor method of the socket? Or is it the socket object itself? Thanks in advance for you attention.
