If a port number _is_ specified on the command line, all the listeners will get the same port number, so SO_REUSEADDR needs to be set on each socket. Thus we can't let TI-RPC create the listener sockets for us in this case; we must create them ourselves and then set SO_REUSEADDR (and other socket options) by hand. It bothers me that there are two separate code paths in two separate libraries for these two nearly identical cases. Wouldn't it be better to add this functionality to tirpc? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
