Yes...I m physically removing the link at my system for verifying the application.
At the time of Link Failure, The Application is not coming out with CURLE Return code. It is blocking at curl_easy_perform()
I am not using any kind of threads.
File Uploading & Link Monitoring are two different application but both are using the libcurl API.

I am using CURL API in linux
    

Then consider using the curl-library mailing list instead!

  

When the FTP Link is active, i am able to upload the files to the remote 
server. Paralelly i am checking the Availability of Remote Server by sending 
an empty request from CURL to the server (It's from a seperate Exe/process) 
similar to PING. When i disconnect the link manually when file uploading, i 
am not getting the Response about the Link failure from CURL immediately.
    

How do you disconnect the link "manually"? Aha, are you talking about 
physically pulling the plug?

  

Its taking more time to get the status.
    

I don't understand this statement. It takes more time for who to get what 
status? You mean that the second thread gets info slower?

  

But in the Absense of File Transfer, Its giving an immediate responce for 
Link Failures.
    

I don't see how the second thread can be affected by the existance of another 
libcurl thread running or not!
