[Sunhelp] free up the port number

[Richard Hogg]

The port usually stays bound for about 5-10 minutes and then gets freed up
unless there is a process currently using it.

Subject: [Sunhelp] free up the port number


All
Does anyone know how to free up a particular port number without restart
the whole machine?
(The problem I have right now is I have a web server and using port
8004, now I kill the process for the web server, and restart from the
admin server. It complains the port number could not be bind and that
port is already in use)
Any help, I would be appreciated
