... and 1/20 of the sended requests, using the "open socket" command 
don't never arrive to destination... This is an Metacard historical 
bug. As a workaround, i avoid to use this command and use the "POST 
Method" to the Apache port + a php sockets listener/translator instead, 
where the php script is binded, first side, to Apache on port 80 and, 
second side, to the Revolution server-side app on the port xxxx this 
app accept connection :

> accept connections on port "xxxx" with message "newconnect"

Works just as expected and take advantage of the Apache+PHP ability to 
replace MC/Rev in what represants, in my opinion, one of its oldest and 
most dangerous MC/Rev limitation...

The php script example can be found in the list archives in searching 
about the Metacard+PostgreSQL threads.

Best, Pierre
