I'm not a Web Sockets expert, but this isn't how I understand things. As far as I can tell, a Web Socket is just a normal outbound connection on port 80. It would help if ports other than 80 are blocked for outgoing connections, but it wouldn't do anything fancy. -- Andrew McNabb http://www.mcnabbs.org/andrew/ PGP Fingerprint: 8A17 B57C 6879 1863 DE55 8012 AB4D 6098 8826 6868 -------------------- BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ The opinions expressed in this message are the responsibility of their author.
