Yes, the exact port numbers are used in an attempt to maximize transparency. The SO_REUSEADDR only allows the bind to proceed, but the connect still fails due to the socket with the matching 4-tuple being in the time_wait state. Would tcp_tw_recycle/tcp_tw_reuse help in this case?

TIME_WAIT shouldn't be an issue. It is ignored if SO_REUSEADDR is specified. But REUSEADDR must be specified for both sockets, but I guess that's the case. -- Bazsi
