You can check with a netstat -a, you'll probably see the service in FIN_WAIT/FIN_WAIT2. If you let it time out, about 15 minutes, the engine should not produce the same error. FYI on Sparc 2.4/Online 7.x I've noticed that using onmonitor to stop the engine closes the network without a problem, whereas onmode -ky seems to leave the network in a 'FINWAIT' condition. -- Paul Watson # WF Software Ltd # It said run using Windows 95 Tel: +44 1436 674629 # or better in the manual Fax: +44 1436 678693 # so I used Unix www.wfsoftware.co.uk #
