[Vtun-devel] Restarting the server

[Alexander B. <le...@st...>]

Hi!

I've fixed a bug in the current CVS tree that affected restarting the
server when the old one still had some connections forked:

After forking a new connection, the server didn't close the listening
socket in the child process.
Therefore the SO_REUSEADDR option didn't work when restarting the
server because after killing the main server, its child processes still
had active listening sockets.

Cheers,
--leo

P.S.: The spec-file in 2.5b1 contained the wrong version number,
therefore rpm --tarbuild doesn't work. I've also updated the package
files for freebsd and solaris.
