Incidentally, I'd be interested in knowing why it is that the socket
"file" is left behind while ports are automatically released if anyone
knows.
The file system contains long-lived "objects", so the file created will
stay there until explicitly removed. Ports only stay around as long as
some process is using them (+/- some slop time to let dead packets die
out).
