sure, i will test it on the weekend. the client leakage has disappeared 
as soon as the verify callback was removed from the class, thanks. i 
have tested the simple server with 2000 clients, the memory footprint of 
it was 2724Kat the startup, after the last client has disconnected, it 
was 12100K +- 100K. when i modified it a bit, so after a ZeroReturnError 
the dropClient function was called with an error parameter, to skip the 
shutdown method, the leakage disappeared, but a few hundred TIME_WAIT 
lines showed up in the netstat command's output. so right now i'm 
completely satisfied, but if you find out something about this, please 
let me know :) i'll send you the results of testing the CVS version next 
week sometime (i won't have access to the net on monday and maybe 
tuesday). thanks for the help,
