Clarification - Setting socket options at the same time when socket is listening

I need clarification on whether it is okay to set socket options on a listening socket simultaneously when it is being used in an accept() call? Following is the scenario:- -- Task 1 - is executing in a loop - polling a listen socket, lets call it 'fd', (whose file descriptor is global)...

RHEL5.5 Socket Timeout Setting

Is there a Linux tunable to reduce the amount of time a socket waits before considering the remote side dead? Its the same senario when you try to telnet to a dead machine, telnet sits and waits for ~30seconds, before the socket timer expires and cancels the request.

gen_udp

gen_udp(3erl)						     Erlang Module Definition						     gen_udp(3erl)

NAME

       gen_udp - Interface to UDP sockets

DESCRIPTION

       The gen_udp module provides functions for communicating with sockets using the UDP protocol.

DATA TYPES

       ip_address()
	 see inet(3erl)

       posix()
	 see inet(3erl)

       socket()
	 as returned by open/1,2

EXPORTS

       open(Port) -> {ok, Socket} | {error, Reason}
       open(Port, Options) -> {ok, Socket} | {error, Reason}

	      Types  Port = 0..65535
		     Options = [Opt]
		     Opt -- see below
		     Socket = socket()
		     Reason = posix()

	      Associates a UDP port number ( Port ) with the calling process.

	      The available options are:

		list :
		  Received Packet is delivered as a list.

		binary :
		  Received Packet is delivered as a binary.

		{ip, ip_address()} :
		  If the host has several network interfaces, this option specifies which one to use.

		{fd, int()} :
		  If a socket has somehow been opened without using gen_udp , use this option to pass the file descriptor for it.

		inet6 :
		  Set up the socket for IPv6.

		inet :
		  Set up the socket for IPv4.

		Opt :
		  See inet:setopts/2 .

	      The returned socket Socket is used to send packets from this port with send/4 . When UDP packets arrive at the opened port, they are
	      delivered as messages:

	      {udp, Socket, IP, InPortNo, Packet}

	      Note that arriving UDP packets that are longer than the receive buffer option specifies, might be truncated without warning.

	      IP and InPortNo define the address from which Packet came. Packet is a list of bytes if the option list was specified. Packet  is  a
	      binary if the option binary was specified.

	      Default value for the receive buffer option is {recbuf, 8192} .

	      If Port == 0 , the underlying OS assigns a free UDP port, use inet:port/1 to retrieve it.

       send(Socket, Address, Port, Packet) -> ok | {error, Reason}

	      Types  Socket = socket()
		     Address = string() | atom() | ip_address()
		     Port = 0..65535
		     Packet = [char()] | binary()
		     Reason = not_owner | posix()

	      Sends a packet to the specified address and port. The Address argument can be either a hostname, or an IP address.

       recv(Socket, Length) -> {ok, {Address, Port, Packet}} | {error, Reason}
       recv(Socket, Length, Timeout) -> {ok, {Address, Port, Packet}} | {error, Reason}

	      Types  Socket = socket()
		     Length = int()
		     Address = ip_address()
		     Port = 0..65535
		     Packet = [char()] | binary()
		     Timeout = int() | infinity
		     Reason = not_owner | posix()

	      This function receives a packet from a socket in passive mode.

	      The optional Timeout parameter specifies a timeout in milliseconds. The default value is infinity .

       controlling_process(Socket, Pid) -> ok

	      Types  Socket = socket()
		     Pid = pid()

	      Assigns a new controlling process Pid to Socket . The controlling process is the process which receives messages from the socket.

       close(Socket) -> ok | {error, Reason}

	      Types  Socket = socket()
		     Reason = not_owner | posix()

	      Closes a UDP socket.
