My apologies to the original poster. I did find it very hard to read with the very brief time I put into reading posts which don't fit Usenet conventions. Upon rereading it now a third time I can parse it a little better, and my outburst does seem harsh. (Normally I quickly hit "k" on such posts and carry on, but the apparent SO_REUSEADDR symptom caught my eye milliseconds before I did so.) > The good thing is that he did provide example that clearly > illustrates the problem. > > Which is not really that he can't reuse the socket address. So I'm doubly wrong and apologize for not having tried hard enough to read it to avoid giving an unhelpful answer. -putting-ice-on-his-slapped-wrists-ly y'rs, Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
