Hi,
i write a client TCP application using Bcb6 under Win-2000. The 
application uses the connect, send, recv, etc API and NOT components.
Once  the server is up and opens a socket the client create the 
connection once and send & recv message. It closes the connection just
when the client terminate it's work.
If for any reason the server crushes and start immediately again, the 
connection is lost, and since i don't get any error (how come ?)
the connection between the client and the server is broken and i have to 
restart the client to fix it.
How can the client identify that the server crushed ?
How come there is no error when sending a message on a socket when there 
is no server to answer ?

Thanks

Ofer
