Synopsis: no shutdown() of client socket in ap_bclose()

State-Changed-From-To: feedback-closed
State-Changed-By: fielding
State-Changed-When: Fri Dec 11 18:46:22 PST 1998
State-Changed-Why:

What you describe is normal behavior according to both the
TCP specifications and most implementations.  TIME_WAIT is
the state of a socket after it has been closed and the FIN
acknowledgement has been received from the client. Calling
shutdown before close will not have any effect, unless the
implementation of shutdown is itself broken and sends a
RST instead of a FIN to the client.
