I am trying to use a geocode webservice from debian linux on port 7010 on a
remote windows host.

It is a geocode service which uses port 7010 for socket cummunication it is
installed on my own win 2k server.



I am able to connect to the service from another windows client (a JAVA
program) and the linux server is on the same LAN as the geocode webservice
server, so it is
not a firewall problem (IPtables removed!) on the linux.

I can connnect to the webservice via PHP (socket_create,
socket_set_nonblocked, socket_connect) and see in the webservicelog that a
connection has been established .



BUT i can NOT read (socket_read) %#%¤

From my PHP script i get the following message :
"Warning: socket_read() unable to read from socket [11]: Resource
temporarily
unavailable"


When i use "netstat -nap" i can see that there is an entry "host.com:7010"
and status is TIME_WAIT.



What is wrong ..?

TIME_WAIT designates a closed connection waiting for duplicates in the
network to expire. This means that the server already has closed the
connection.

I would suggest going around PHP and use C or telnet to see what
happens. If errno is set at 11 we have an EAGAIN[1]. This indicates
that either your socket is non-blocking and no data was recieved or
the timeout value set on the socket expired.

Alternatively, look inside PHP to figure out what it does.
