Connection remains in TIME_WAIT state

[pocouser]

hi
Even after closing the connection by calling shutdown() followed by close() the connection remains in TIME_WAIT state for around 45-50 seconds.
I am also calling setKeepAlive and setLinger on each connection.
Is there any solution to this? am i missing anything?
Thanks

There may be no problem to start with. See [url=http://www.developerweb.net/forum/showthread.php?t=2941|TIME_WAIT] and http://www.developerweb.net/forum/showthread.php?t=2982]SO_LINGER[/url
