timeout for accept Can't Post
After I run an accept I want to come out after 3 seconds. Now I need something like a timeout for accept. My code:
$newchecksock=$checksock->accept();
while (defined($buf=<$newchecksock> ))
{
chomp($buf);
if($buf eq "ok")
{
print"everything's ok, Port $portonclient[$i] is open!\n";
}
}

How can I create a timeout for this ?
Please help !
Thanks a lot, Holger.

on unix try:
my ($wait_time)=3;
$SIG{'ALRT'}=sub
{die "timeout}

alert($wait_time);
eval
{
#waiting 3 seconds
};
alert (0);
if ($@=~/timeout/)
{
#looser
}else
{
#winner
};
