Subject: Problems with sockets HELP!

I am having trouble write large data structures across a socket...

The structure size is ~100K, and the write command return ~5662 bytes
successfully written.

In the file /usr/src/linux/net/tcp/sock.h

I changed the values of SK_WMEM_MAX and SK_RMEM_MAX to ~512K.
This works for a while, and then it bombs out with a write error.

I know the socket/tcpip is in the testing phase, but any help would
be great... I really would like to do this project in Linux :)

as opposed to the Sparc 2 I've been using.

Also, on a side note, I am also having a strange error when converting
a floating point number to an integer.

when I do a

int i;
float j;

i=(int) j;

I get a Floating Point Exception...

BTW I am using a 486-33 VLB system, with the -m486 compiler option enabled.

Thanks...
