        Hi,

        Have you been able to compile and run demo/tcpthread on your
box? If so, you should have no problem. But be careful, take into
account that you are trying to connect to port 23 (usually telnet),
and if there is no telnet server on that host, the constructor
`TCPStream client(add,23) will throw and exception (because connection
fails). This is not a fault but a feature of Common C++; you can also
specify arguments to the constructor in order to not throw exceptions.

        Try other ports where you are sure there are servers
listening.

        I attach two modified tcpclients. In the first, the TCPStream
constructor does not throw exceptions. In the second, exceptions are
not disabled in the TCPStream constructor.

        I have had some problems with the second one, but I will
comment it in other post...
