Keywords: SunOS Message-ID: <5091@brazos.Rice.edu> Date: 13 Feb 90 17:58:14 GMT Sender: root@rice.edu Organization: Sun-Spots Lines: 11 Approved: Sun-Spots@rice.edu X-Sun-Spots-Digest: Volume 9, Issue 43, message 9 I am doing some socket programming on the SUN4 under SUN4.0.3. I am trying to create a reusable socket that gets reconnected to periodically. I create the socket nolinger and reuse address. After using the socket, I do a shutdown then a close. However, this does not seem to close the socket cleanly so I can not reconnect to the other socket. What am I doing wrong? The manuals are somewhat sparse, so I you have suggestions for good manuals and/or solutions, I would be gratefule. Mark E. Hunter meh@wucs1.wustl.edu
