[ROOT] sockets, threads, event handlers

Hi guys,

- I am trying to use TSocketHandler to catch connection requests and
other events on a socket. It looks like it doesn't work under NT,
although I do see that client gets connected to a server on localhost.
Have you ever experienced this problem?

- Could you explain a bit about TSocketHandler  (TFileHandler)
functionality. Does it use interrupts or this is just a select()
function sitting on a global ROOT event loop triggered by a timer?
Actually I would like to know what is more efficient in terms of
response time - SysHandler facility or a thread with select()?

- Threads: do we have threads under NT?

Cheers,
Anton
