Hi Oleg, all my ideas about how to open a socket NIO style have gone down when I remembered the [Secure]SocketFactory. NIO socket opening is based on a SocketChannel and unconnected sockets. But the SocketFactory returns a Socket, and core-main is JDK 1.3 compatible while unconnected sockets were not introduced until JDK 1.4. I am giving up on suggesting anything here.
