I?m making a gameserver report script.
The problem is when i try to read the reply from the filepointer.
<?php
$charstoread=500;
$fp = pfsockopen("udp://localhost", 27960, &$errno, &$errstr, 10);
 if(!$fp) {
 	echo "$errstr ($errno)<br>\n";
 } else 
fputs($fp,"\xff\xff\xff\xffgetstatus");
echo fread($fp, $charstoread);
fclose($fp);
?> 

Since i don?t know how many char?s i have to read I use fread, because it should stop when it reaches EOF, but it doesn?t stop.
PHP3 freezes, or enter an infinite loop, maybee because it?s unable to find EOF ???.

So it doesn't crash, just stops?
Did you try non-blocking read (good idea with UDP anyway)?
