Help! We seem to have come up against a serious shortcoming in the ISODE 6.0 tsaplisten facility. This is what is happening: We have two or more processes that want to listen at the same transport address (at mutually exclusive times). But, the first process performs its TNetListen and TNetAccept just fine, but then when it does a TNetClose to stop listening on the transport address, it turns out that the address is still bound, and can't be listened on by another process until the first process exits. This is somewhat of a dilemma for us. If anyone knows how to work around this problem, please mail to wheeler@mbunix.mitre.org. BTW, we are running ISODE-6.0 on a Sun 3 with SunLink 6.0 (using TP4, not X.25). Thanks in advance.
