SYMPTOMSThe attempt to connect to a Socket server application fails. The use of a network analyzer confirms that the Socket server is resetting every attempt to initiate the TCP connection. CAUSE
A previous failure to establish a TCP Connection has occurred on the DOS
Socket Server. The DOS Sockets driver believes that its backlog of
listening connections is full and refuses attempts to establish new
connections.
It is the final ACK from the client that triggers the socket acceptance
mechanism and allows the BACKLOG counter to be decremented.
WORKAROUNDTo work around this problem, stop the DOS Socket Server application and restart it periodically. STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed this to be a problem in LAN Manager version 2.2c. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available. Additional query words:
