What I ended up doing was just having the server invalidate the front 
object, as I couldn't find a way to reliably terminate all connections 
for a given client. I've now come across another problem which, when 
solved, might also allow me to solve this problem. More on that at a 
later date :-)

Right, the problem was that I didn't want the server depending on the 
client to disconnect, I wanted to force it from the server side. But 
I've found something that works for now.

Thanks!
