The "SO" prefix stands for "SOcket" -- "SO_REUSEADDR" is one of many so called "socket option"s. The name "socketserver" suggests that it is based on sockets. Thus, it is highly likely that you can use "SO_REUSEADDR" together with "socketserver" -- in one way or another. In addition, it is very helpful to read the available documentation. The "socketserver" documentation tells you that a "socketserver" has the attribute "allow_reuse_address", described as: "Whether the server will allow the reuse of an address. This defaults to False, and can be set in subclasses to change the policy." The choice of this attribute's name suggests that it was designed to use the "SO_REUSEADDR" socket option internally to support this frequent use case. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
