Re: Re[2]: Connection Problems

["DB" <DB@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You're forgetting that the Global Server is "eSignal-compatible", not 
eSignal is "Global Server-compatible".

eSignal Data Manager is a server (daemon) which serves the incoming 
connections - for example from Global Server - which is a client in this 
communication.

And it's a job of the client to detect the connection between itself and a 
server being lost and to recover this link.

The daemon serves the incoming connection and authorise it. If the client is 
authorised, it starts to receive quotes. If the client is disconnected (for 
whatever reason), the daemon does not have to look for it - it just continue 
to serve the other possible connections (from another clients).

So if the connection between client and server is lost, the client should 
detect this and to restore a connection - that's all.

Regards,
DB
