Hi Julius,
I can confirm your discovery.
I observed that same behaviour running gnugk-2.2beta4, openh323-1.14.2, pwlib-1.7.3 on SPARC/Solaris yesterday.
And I believe I saw it during my attempts on Windows/NT too.
This was most likely part of the reasons why I began to doubt the stability of gnugk whilest trying to make it run on my Windows/NT machine, and therefore decided to go on with my tests on a Solaris machine (who's IP stack I have greater trust in).
Best Regards, Rolf Sponsel

Hello,
I'm using gnugk 2.2 yesterday's cvs, openh323 v1.14.2, pwlib 1.7.3 on up2dated redhat 9.0 server with 2.4.20-31.9smp kernel.
My problem is:
I start gnugk with fairly minimalistic config:
[Gatekeeper::Main] Fourtytwo=42 Name=gkm UseBroadcastListener=0 Home=192.168.3.254 [GkStatus::Auth] rule=allow
If I start gnugk, connect to the console on port 7000, then disconnect and check servers listening/open ports :
$ netstat -a | grep 7000 tcp 0 0 192.168.3.254:7000 *:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 192.168.3.254:7000 192.168.3.253:53068 TIME_WAIT
Then stop gnugk and check ports again:
$ netstat -a | grep 7000 tcp 0 0 192.168.3.254:7000 192.168.3.253:53115 TIME_WAIT
Closed connection is still in TIME_WAIT status, not a problem by itself since it times out eventually.
But if i restart gnugk before TIME_WAIT connection closes gnugk fails to listen on port 7000. After restarting gnugk it still shows no ports listening :
$ netstat -a | grep 7000 tcp 0 0 192.168.3.254:7000 192.168.3.253:53140 TIME_WAIT
So if I restart gnugk while connected to console, or shortly after disconnecting from console I'm locked out from telneting to port 7000 :(
