Hi, The sk device has no polling support, neither in 5 nor in 6. Is there a particular reason (maybe because it's a Gigabit device) ? Or is polling not supported because it simply has not yet been coded? If so, would it be straightforward to add the code? Thanks, Rob. __________________________________ Yahoo!

Since glebius@ has some recent work on polling(4), you may want to ask him for some in-depth advises. Cheers, -- Xin LI <delphij@delphij.net> http://www.delphij.net

Also, I don't know anything about coding the polling stuff; I use it on other PCs (rl, xl) and was wondering why not with sk. If I have a piece of code that is 99.9 % sure to work, then in that case I could try it out on the production server in a test over the weekend.> BTW.
