Hi Lewis,

I think the bind() in makeSocket() is failing (as expected) but the subsequent successful call to epicsSocketDestroy() in the same function is clearing the error code, hence when the check is made in  repeaterClient::verify () rather than SOCK_EADDRINUSE it is finding 0.  One way to fix it might be to change makeSocket() to make a copy of any socket error code and then return that (or 0 on success) rather than true/false

Regards,

Freddie
