Yes, what Richard said :-)
Don't be misled by the dictionary - the socketID *may* start with an IP
address, but it doesn't need to - therefore you can simply
close 8765
without an IP address, to close sockets you have 'accepted' on.

After running "accept", check the openSockets. You should see one
which has no IP address, and is just the port number you're listening
on, e.g.:
accept connections on port 4444 with message "foo"
put the openSockets
..should yield:
4444
If you then close that you should be unable to receive further
connections:
close socket 4444
