I am trying to trouble shoot an appication for our programmers. THey are creating sockets and ports within the application and I would like to know how to manually go into the operating system and close the port. I know the socket and port number based on "netstat" command. Can I release a port from the command prompt or within Windows somewhere??? Help would greatly be appreciated
