That's all serf is doing. With WSAPoll(), if you connect to a port via a non-blocking socket that there is no listener on, WSAPoll() never sends any indication. However, select() lets you know that the earlier connect() failed. Given the pretty isolated test case in the forum earlier, I do think this is an underlying issue with WSAPoll() - but enough of an issue, it shouldn't be the default unless someone can find a way to get WSAPoll() to report failure... -- justin
