Hi list Sorry to come up on the subject again, but there must be someone having solved this :
when trying to maintain a network of computers alive, it can happen that a machine tries periodically to connect to a distant host which is offline (because it is dead). In that case sending the message [connect> with a non available host to [netsend 0 or 1] results in a freezing of PD for 15 long seconds, which stops any interaction in realtime, which is kind of serious ! happens on OsX 10.6 /10.7 Pd 42.5 Is there a way to configure something to go around this ? Thanks JmA

Hi list When given a connect message with a host which is absent / offline, the netsend object takes one minute or so to respond "Bad Host" on Mac OsX. During that time, Pd is not responding to edit, close open and other GUI commands, Pd seems dead... and wakes up again only when the Bad Host message appears. Is there a way to go around this ?
Maybe use UDP instead of TCP: [netsend 1]
