    TPMON1 has nothing to do with the TV, TEK etc servers

    The numbers are in extended hex 0-9,A-Z not 10

   When a socket has been used and closed, the system takes some time
to discover this fact - actually as much as 5 minutes in some cases.
The socket number may not be reused in the interval.  This is the
typical message that appears in that case although typically it is
with Inet sockets.

How many windows servers are you running simultaneously off one
server?
