Response to: Address in use

Got it to work, using code from Beej's Guide page mentioned in another post - there was the exact description of the problem too. I added:


int yes=1;
if (setsockopt(listenfd,SOL_SOCKET,SO_REUSEADDR,&yes,sizeof(int)) < 0) {
perror( "setsockopt" );
exit(1);
}


and I can start the server application right after stopping it without an error.
