database-enabled, username-and-password-protected, multi-user,
multi-threaded application written in Java that can be used as secure
web servers or platforms to web-enable any Java applications, to build
distributed, client/server, ... applications. This industrial-strength
application is light-weight. As a proof of its power and robustness,
sockSvr has been used to power this web site since Feb 2002. As a
demonstration of its extensibility, sockSvr has been used to build the
