No. Disconnect happens as a result of sysread() returning error zero. Client::TCP can't announce a disconnection unless it's also reading the socket. Have you seen http://poe.perl.org/?Evolution_of_a_poe_server ? It's server side, but it shows a few different ways to build and work with sockets. Maybe Wheel::SocketFactory and Wheel::ReadWrite (or perhaps just select_read) will suit your problem better. -- Rocco Caputo - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://poe.perl.org/
