Answering questions does not give you points to ask more<br />
questions, you can get a free T-shirt after 20,000 expert<br />
points or some such.<br />
<br />
You can buy the points if you like, otherwise they collect<br />
at 5pts/day.<br />
<br />
Sorry I don't know the answer, I've had similar problems myself<br />
but I eventually ended up fixing the program.<br />

I am working on a client server project using AF_INET sockets in Solaris 2.5.1.<br />
<br />
I am constantly rebooting my servers, and such, and each time the address is left binded and I have to wait for the OS to free up the address. (I know it is my sloppy code doing this, that is on the list to be fixed) but in the meantime is there any way I can free these up myself?<br />

Sorry, I can only offer 15pts, all I have left. How do I get more points anyways? I cannot answer any of the questions. (when I tried it said I had to be an expert)

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.

C is a general-purpose, imperative computer programming language, supporting structured programming, lexical variable scope and recursion, while a static type system prevents many unintended operations. By design, C provides constructs that map efficiently to typical machine instructions, so it has found lasting use in applications that had formerly been coded in assembly language, including operating systems as well as various application software for computers ranging from supercomputers to embedded systems. It is distinct from C++ (which has its roots in C) and C#, and many later languages have borrowed directly or indirectly from C.
