I was speaking of our own io framework we built in C and Java for our
applications at my workplace (concerning the poll) ... Before we started
migrating to Mina ;)
Sorry for the confusion

Is the connections between your 2 boxes direct (ie no proxy or
firewall) because I witnessed a couple of years ago the exact same
behavior with one of our application and we found out that the issue
was that a proxy was leaving the socket hanging there making the
client or server think it was still active.
From what I remember from our diverse implementation at work (I am
not familiar with Mina's inner working). I think the poll would
indicate something occurred and a read confirm the socket closing
(cleanly or not).
As far as I understand the way NIO works, when the clinet has brutally
closed the connection (ie, no FIN), the selector won't be informed
about any modification regarding this socket, so its SelectionKey
will never be returned on a select() operation.
I any case, we don't poll.
Am I missing something ?
