Is there a tool available that would identify which process has a lock on a
specific port ?

I am running into problems in VS05 SP1 debugger creating TcpServerChannels
on a specific port , and then ( for various reasons ) I must kill the debug
session , but in some circumstances the channel remains locked ...
 
Not without specifying a protocol name, you don't.  (Or maybe you like the  
empty output that produces :) )


There's a -? flag you may find useful.  :p

longer and you jumped in to marry his wife
True I thought so.
 
Thanks for the response, Arne.

netstat -ano is very useful.

What is the best way to ensure way to ensure that a TcpServerChannel object
relinquishes it's port ?

I've found that object dereferencing alone is not enough.

Is registration/deregistration with ChannelServices relevant to ensuring
that the port is relinquished ?

Thanks again.

Good question.

That is not surprising.

I doubt it.

It is worth trying calling StopListening method.

A custom IServerChannelSinkProvider seems like an overkill.
