This socket is to be reused? Are you sure? Could it be we are talking about different things (sockets)? A excerpt of netstat -to while nntpcache-update was running: ------> tcp 0 0 linuxpc1.lauterbac:1965 news.ccn.net:nntp ESTABLISHED off (0.00/0) tcp 0 6 linuxpc1.lauterbac:1442 news.ccn.net:nntp CLOSE on (0.91/2) ------< The second listed socket is still in the CLOSE state (and has been in CLOSE for days). So it seems this socket isn't used anymore and thus nntpcache has probably missed closing it?
