Description
==========
This trace message is seen when an error occurs while the RTserver is trying to accept an incoming connection attempt. The "invalid value" means that the SmartSockets error code is T_ERR_VAL_INVALID. An example is if you try to define a unique subject with a wildcard, the code returns T_ERR_VAL_INVALID.

Looking through the conn code and the link code there seems to be two main areas where the T_ERR_VAL_INVALID is returned.

1). If during the connect attempt the conn_init_structure is corrupted in one of several ways, like it is too small, or the integer or real format of the peer is not one of SmartSockets' valid formats.

2). If the logical connection name (proto:node:addr) of the peer is corrupted or does not "make sense".

Check to see if a non SmartSockets process, such as a Telnet process, is attempting to connect to the RTserver.
