Subject:  Transcend medp daemon and socket 1161


Since sometime last week we have had a problem in that the ATMvLAN Manager
mediation poller daemon (medp) continually fails with an error code of 255.
We have managed to ascertain that it is failing because the socket it uses
(1161) is already in use. A reboot of the server has had no effect; we have
attempted to change the socket number used by this daemon, but to no
effect, it insists on using 1161.

Has anybody come across this problem, and if so, have a solution?

Has anyone any idea how to find out what is using socket 1161?

We have not made any configuration changes.

We are running Netview 4.1.2, Transcend V4.2.2 on AIX 4.1.5.
