This is as it is by design of Linux kernel: when you close a server and
some clients are still connected, kernel keeps alive the connection
for a time to let possible remote clients finish its work correctly. In
that time, you can not bind again the socket to the same port, with the
exception of root user.

I don't know any way to ask the kernel to "forget" that connection :(,
however, if anybody knows how to do it, I would be very pleased
correcting that "bug"(?)
