Re: XWin listens on too many TCP ports and killing existing connections.

Interesting.  I'm running Nortel Contivity VPN client
so it's possible that
the parts of the TCP/IP stack was replaced.  Is there
a way to replace the
TCP/IP stack to original?  Reinstall Winsock2?

My other question is whether XWin spawning a new
connect every second is
normal?

Thanks,
Khoa Nguyen
