Hi, I have a problem with many server daemons. select() might block for a long time if system date changes. --------- Example : at 10h00am I call select() with a timeout argument set to 2min, at 10h01am, time changes to 09h59am. select() returns at 10h02am, it has blocked during 5 minutes. --------- That is a problem when summer time changes occurs, select() might block for an hour. Is this a known problem ? Is there a way that select() acts differently ?
