Hi, and first, appologies for what is probably quite a trivial question,
but I was demonstrating to someone the other day, what a browser does, when
it requests a web page off an Apache server (running on NT 5, FWIW) by
entering a GET command via Telnet. Fine, it worked great (once I'd figured
out how to get telnet to echo locally, so that I could actually _see_ what
I was typing in :P), but at the end of the response from the server (when
it's finnished delivering the page), I see "Connection to host lost.", as
opposed the "Connection closed by remote server" (or whatever the correct
wording is - I forget). Basically, it looks like the "FIN"/"ACK" part of
the handshake isn't working as it should be. Is this likely to be simply an
aberation of the Windows build of Telnet, an Apache config problem, or some
feature of the (Windows NT) LAN across which I was requesting the page?
To put it simply, is this something I should be worried about, WRT this
actual server, or should I just live with it, since the thing _is_
delivering pages without fuss.
Hope that makes sense to someone.
Dan
