Might want to check out the SO_REUSEADDR bit in sockets. I believe it helps with a problem of a program not notifying the OS that it's done with the port. Piece of a script (duh):
host = "" port = 51423 #random for this example s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) s.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_REUSEADDR, 1) s.bind((host, port)) Good Luck :D -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
