Well thats the point. Why do I need to allocate one extra space for the
string (the first one allready allocate space for the NULL). While the
second example allocates one char too much. Am I right or am I wrong. Or am
I going blind and stupid, at the same time.

find documentation about connection management?  i want to be able to see
all current connections and kill some of them.  how do i do that?

The given fragment of code clearly isn't overwriting anything it
shouldn't.  I think that enlarging the allocated space is masking a bug
somewhere else.

ps ax or ps -e might work on your platform.
