Don�t blame the clients. That is because the server first sends
a file to one and then to the other.

You said you had an AV. That is solved now I think ? Why
don�t you report that ?

Wel as long as code is executed in OnClientConnect then a next
OnClientConnect will not come. So indeed only one client
is served at a time.

If you want to server more clients at the same time
then you have to change your code.

Do not send the whole file in one piece to begin with.

What I do with a file sending server is using a TTimer.
In the TTimer event there is a loop that goes through
the Connections[] array and sends every client for instance
8KB. For every Connection[] you have to keep
track of the file to be send and the position where
you were with sending.

Hans.
