If I understand correctly, your servlet starts a couple new threads in its init
() method.  Then you attempt to shutdown Tomcat, but the VM doesn't terminate.  
You then get a socket bind error when you try to start Tomcat again.

The problem is most likely that your threads are not flagged as deamon 
threads.  The Java VM will remain alive as long as there is at least one non-
daemon thread so the Tomcat VM will never terminate unless you either 
explicitly terminate these threads or set setDeamon(true) when you create them.
