Thank you, but I think it may be not this reason. You see, when accept returns, the go_on will be checked in 'while go_on:', so if it is set to be false, the loop will end. I have set a 0.5 second time out on the select() function. So the 'go_on' will be checked at a frequency every 0.5 second at least.
