Different tcp connect behaviour in Redhat 6.0 and Redhat 6.1

Hi All,

I developed a client/server app that worked fine under Redhat 6.0 but
behaves not the way I want under Redhat 6.1.
My client connects to my server on port 5001 and the client does a local
bind on port 6002 for that socket first, i.p. addresses are all localhost.
The first connection works fine, but if I try to make another parallel
connection then the connect (in the client) returns error 99, cannot assign
requested address. Also after I disconnect the socket with shutdown(fd,2)
and close(fd) then another connect returns the same error 99. Only after I
wait some time (until netstat | grep 6002 gives nothing) the connect
succeeds again.
How can I get the Redhat 6.0 behaviour?
