This sounds like you're doing regular pings on a timer. I suspect it would be easier to only send a ping if you haven't heard anything from the client in some configurable amount of time (reset your timer any time you get any data from the client), then these issues won't arrise. If the client is sending regular pings, you know it's online because it pinged you. —Sam _______________________________________________ Standards mailing list Info: https://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/standards Unsubscribe: standards-unsubscr...@xmpp.org _______________________________________________
