Problem is still relevant.
Please help.

Agree, would like a formal solution to this.

My apologies for the late responses, but I have just moved to a new place and didn't have that much time to check up with new messages to this conversation. The suggest location of patching would be adding it inside the Client.prototype._onConnect on both the req and req.connection

Also @ skillcoder to get rid of node crashes you should add a global exception handler.. Using:

process.addListener( "uncaughtException", function captureException( err ){ console.log('Error occurred, prevented Node.js crash: '); console.dir( err ); });

Do I understand correctly you need to edit the file
./Socket.IO-node/lib/socket.io/client.js
on the client side so as not to fall a server?

Hi,

You need to edit the Client.prototype._onConnect in ./Socket.IO-node/lib/socket.io/client.js . I have also pushed the changes to my companies github repo and highlighted the position of the changes.
( Note: this is on socket.io 0.6.15 )
