WSAEFAULT
(10014)
Bad address.
The system detected an invalid pointer address in attempting
to use a pointer argument of a call. This error occurs if an
application passes an invalid pointer value, or if the length
of the buffer is too small. For instance, if the length of an
argument which is a struct sockaddr is smaller than
sizeof(struct sockaddr).

Does your customer leave a connection open for long periods of
time? I'm basically clueless, but the error comes from the
select call in the component Remote, module inet.c, routine
select_wait. (Confession time - I always considered networking
a guy thing and ignored it. Perhaps someone out there who took
a more enlightened attitude can put together these hints.
