[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install webshell
2. start webshell with -i etho --ssl-disable optons
3. The program does not start and am not able to come out of shell

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected:
When i select the required interface through which i want the webshell to
run, it should start without any problem.
Problem:
The followind call trace is produced and i am not able to come out of the
shell when ^c is issued... it just hangs
