Thanks to the many who helped me on this - just about everyone said to use
'lsof' which turns out is a very useful utility downloadable from the
web....
 
'lsof' told me what process is hanging onto that port so all I have to do
now is kill it off.
 
I won't forget this one!
 
Cheers all and thanks for being so prompt!
Nick.
 

ORIGINAL MESSAGE:
 
I have a problem where I can't start an application up which attempts to
bind to a particular port.
 
It usually works fine but now it's saying "Address already in use" after the
bind (i.e.the bind () function call is returning the error EADDRINUSE).
 
The strange thing is I can't see any process holding onto this port, i.e.
 
> netstat -a | grep 2700
                    udp 0 0 *.2700
 
I am thinking I'm going to have to schedule a reboot but wondered if anyone
out there has any ideas first.
