Hi,
I've run into a problem where a process trying to connect to a local port within the local port range eventually ends up connected to itself, with source port = dest port.
similar behavior can be gotten by running netcat as follows: nc -p 1025 localhost 1025
I'm not really sure if that's a bug, but the original case was at least unexpected.
Regards, Tal Kelrich
