I'm a newcomer to socket programming. I have a socket server listening at a port and processing a fairly low volume of requests. Since the volume is low, I'd like to have my socket clients check the status of the server when connecting, i.e., is it processing a request or is it free? If it's busy I would disconnect and try again after some interval. Can I get this information from the socket server? Setting the SENSITIVE attribute on the server and then querying it after connecting doesn't seem to work. Also, the server still seems to accept connections when SENSITIVE is set to false and just queues them up. Thanks,
