[erlang-questions] tcp_close during async accept

[Oscar Hellström]

There might be syn cookies involved as well? That way you kind of
believe (in the client) that the connection is successful, or at least
that's how I understand it. I also don't know about OSX, but at least in
Linux you can reconfigure most of this with sysctl...
