hi,
I have written a ping application ( by looking at (no spam) Stevens's book -
UNOP-). I works but there is aproblem with recvfrom. it wait much
longer that i expect, about 3 to 5 seconds.Is there anyway to reduce
this time or there maybe something wrong with my code?
Regards,
Behzad |

The 'recvfrom' function will wait until a packet is received. If that
takes 3 to 5 seconds, then that's how long it will wait. The only way
to reduce the time is to call 'recvfrom' later or get the other side
to send the packet sooner.

Unless there is something weird going on (note my previous posts on a
device that advertises a window size of one byte), the question should
be, "why is it waiting so long?"
