Subject: ruby network question

I will obviously mail the ruby list as well, but on the off chance
someone here might be able to help,

(I'm a ruby newbie)

i have a simple ruby mgmt program listening on a network port,  which
accepts commands and does appropriate stuff,

however restarted services weirdly seem to hold the port of the process,

One of the things it does is to restart system services
<ruby code>
                       system "/usr/local/etc/rc.d/proftpd start"

sockstat -4 -l then shows that the proftpd process is tied to the
listening port of the ruby program/daemon.
(It does the same when not running daemonised).


nobody   proftpd    30996 1  tcp4   *:21                  *:*
nobody   proftpd    30885 3  tcp4   [hostIP]:844    *:*
root     ruby       30826 3  tcp4   [hostIP]:844    *:*

This doesn't affect the running of the ftp server or the ruby daemon,
but it means that i need to restart the various other daemons to release
the 844 socket.

can anyone help?
