Hi, Is the server running with -I for the idle timeout, or is something else closing the connection? If it's the latter I wonder if whatever is closing the connection is writing some message to the socket which isn't valid traffic? It's also possible there could be bugs in the -I code. What does a tcpdump or wireshark capture look like? After the first few packets there should be nothing intelligible in the byte stream (it's all encrypted). Matt
