Yes ... but it would have been better to have the real code ... ie the 
full thing.
with fragments of code it's difficult to tell whether something has been
missed out in your original, or just in the code you posted.  I'll 
assume you
posted something pretty complete though.

Based on the code you posted ... I would expect each socket to be
closed almost immediately, since you don't retain the handles, and when
each handle gets released the associated socket will be closed.

As you are doing a foreground write (writeData:) rather than a background
one, I would expect the welcome message to be written before the socket
is closed.

Apart from that, nothing really springs out as an obvious problem.
