I'm just beginning program in socket.  Some concepts that I'm quite 

understand.  Please help me to understand more.



I'm not sure if I understand about ASYNCHRONOUS and NON BLOCKING.  My

server had been set as ASYNCHRONOUS.  I want my server running as both

ASYNCHRONOUS and NON BLOCKING.



By default all servers are in NON BLOCKING or I have set it 

for NON BLOCKING with FIONBIO?





Having these two together.  Doesn't cause a confict isn't it?
