If u run an FMS application and connect to it with a client, then pull the LAN cable to that client out of the wall [disconnecting it] the fms server still shows that client as connected.... How is this supposed to be managed? the application.onDisconnect function is NOT called in this scenario, and the application thinks a client is still present!

HELP

    Yup... that's been a problem since FCS 1.0. The problem is that FMS still sees the connection to the router/proxy, and thinks the client is still there.

    I like to work around this by having the server call a client function on an interval, and wait for a response (using client.call and a result handler). If the client doesn't respond after a given period of time, I close the connection on the server side.
