Re: All Ports in Use when they are not

[Gene Kenney <gkenney@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Sound like you are experiencing the same problem that we ran across, earlier this year.  III discovered phantom sessions on our system.  These were sessions that did not close down properly,  and release the port for use.  Only III could close these phantom sessions, and release the ports on our system.
