problems with read()

[Pere Camps <ran@casal.upc.es>]

Hi!

	I'm in the need of tracing a read(). After creating a socket
(socket+bind+listen) I make a telnet call the machine+port and after the
first read(), the program fails at it.

	More exactly I get a errno that says:
	Invalid argument

	And the exact call is:
        cont=read(sd, line, max-longitud-1);

	I've tripled checked the arguments with gdb and all of them are
what read expects. sd is the value given by bind(), line is a char * with
allocated memory and max-longitud-1 is long. I've casted all to their man
specifications to no avail.

	Does anybody know what's going here?

	TIA!
