I have just discovered that when I use M$ telnet to access a Linux box,
when I close the connection the netstat -a shows the connection as CLOSE
with details of the established socket rather then as LISTEN with no
socket details.

The effect of this is that I cannot establish another telnet connection to
that port.

How can I clear that entry from the netstat table short of rebooting the
Linux box?  It doesn't seem to want to time out.

Howard.
