Advanced TCP Server Using the select( ) Function Troubles

[seulater]

I am using the "Advanced TCP Server Using the select( ) Function" example in the Programming Guide exactly the way its shown in the pdf.

It does work just fine, but i would like to be able to send more then 20 chars to it.
this is listed in the example:

char buffer[20];
int rv = read( fd_array, buffer, 21 )


however, when i change this to
char buffer[80];
int rv = read( fd_array, buffer, 81 )

and then try to connect i allways get the "Server Full" message.

I cannot figure out how to make this accept more that 20 chars.

It's somewhat unclear from your example as to what exactly is going on, but it could be that the server is blocking, waiting to read in all 81 bytes of data, and is unable to accept your connection because it's busy blocking on that last receive.
