multi-threaded distributed objects?

I've implemented a prototype multi-threaded object server using  
Distributed Objects and based it upon the example NeXT supplied with 3.0.

I have a server that creates a new thread to service all work for a client  
connection in its own thread but I am unable to terminate the connection  
thread (run) from either the client or server using the NXConnection  
methods. The server only creates new threads. Ideally, an NXConnection  
object would support a 'stop' method that would terminate the 'run'  
method. I've tried cthread_exit but that leaves the server in an unstable  
state presumably because the NXConnection was not cleanly dismissed. Any  
ideas?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
