I have now got the close loop with the printf in it. You are probably 
right that I was closing in the rt context because syslog shows an error 
from rtdm stating that one cannot close from rea time. I understand from 
a thread elsewhere that printf brings the program to secondary mode 
hence helps with the closing?

Its working now infallibly, no more open sockets remain so I can work 
like this. Also applied the suggestion to turn off the loopback with 
setsockopt and that functions well too (no more buffer overflows)

I only still have the problem with EML which does not seem happy in 
combination with rtcan. Even if I increase the rtskbf_cache_size value 
(now on 2048). It still occurs incidentally and even after the program 
has been running for a while. Anyhow that seems to have nothing to do 
with this topic....drifting a bit.


Thanks.

Roland
