You do that on what system?

Is there a > way to bring down the deamons gracefully so that the port gets freed up ? I'm very unclear about what program(s) is/are running where and when, and what configuration files are where. The way inetd/xinetd work is that they listen on the assigned port and when a connect request comes in, fires up the associated binary to handle it. If you're getting connection refused messages, that sounds like what is supposed to be listening on that port is not actually listening. I'm also not clear if you have inetd running on USS and are _also_ manually starting the agent with the "bfagent -s" command. That's definitely going to cause some kind of problem.
