Hi,

I've developed a program that uses a socket to receive information 24h a
~ day.

The problem is that the socket seems to freeze.  By that I mean the
program stops getting information but doesn't raise any error.

I tried to solve this by writing the following functions, in order to
try to start the socket connection again:

def keepAlive(self):
~    self.alive = 0
~    tnow = time.time()
~    if tnow - self.lastTime > 90:   # last time got from last string
received from the socket
~        self.alive = 1

def reSocket():
~    print "socket has failed", time.strftime('%X', time.localtime())
~    time.sleep(60)
~    l=GServer()                # new instance that contains the socket

reSocket is triggered when self.alive is 1.

But it hasn't solved my problem.  These functions have effect only after
I do a ^C, and even then, the socket doesn't start to acquire new input.

Any clues you can give me about this?
