I have a socket that connects to a port. Is there A way I can modify the timeout of the connection, because it takes so long for it to get an error when the other computer is closed.

Hi,

I am not sure but I think the TCP/IP timeout is a general setting and cannot be modified on individual connection basis. Nevertheless I kown there are some utilities that allow you to set advanced TCP options like timeouts and packet sizes. Unfortunately I can't tell you which they are but a search throug the shareware/freeware sites will probably help you. I even think Apple has such a control panel.

Hope this helped you. If somebody knows better I will be glad to learn.
