Remember, the timed_wait timeout is there for a reason, and trying to defeat it could reduce the reliability of your application--that's why cutting corners is a bad idea. If you want to minimize the effect of the timeout, then just use different ports, and have the clients find them via DNS SRV records. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
