This phenomenon is explained here: http://hea-www.harvard.edu/~fine/Tech/addrinuse.html or the Unix socket FAQ (http://www.faqs.org/faqs/unix-faq/socket/) 2.7 Normally the solution is to set the SO_REUSEADDR option in the socket (the original one) before binding it: s.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET,socket.SO_REUSEADDR,1) However, SOAPPy does that already so it should work. -- Piet van Oostrum <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> URL: http://www.cs.uu.nl/~piet [PGP 8DAE142BE17999C4] Private email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
