I'll vouch for the non-restarting unless the -b flag is provided. That

Relatedly, it is difficult to restart aolserver, because aolserver seems to
hang on to port 80.

We have aolserver in the inittab with

/usr/local/aolserver4/bin/nsd -it /usr/local/aolserver4/nsd.tcl -u nsadmin
-b 209.133.111.72:80

But when it hangs (which is often), we can't just kill all the processes,
because when we do, we always get:

[02/Dec/2003:15:28:22][21164.1024][-main-] Error: nssock: failed to listen
on 209.133.111.72:80: Permission denied

when inittab tries to bring it up again.

So, we have to kill the processes twice. And you have to wait a couple of
seconds before you kill them again, or it will have the same nssock error.

Thanks
