Really? A search on Google for the string "fs/tcp: bind: Address already in use" returns plenty of matches, and most of them have relevant info. Try this one for example:

The solution was to kill the fs process that was hanging onto the fs/tcp port, and kill -HUP the inetd process.

The original post

Running 2.6 on a Sun Netra i was getting the following coming to my console

Sep 10 11:15:48 worf inetd[170]: /usr/openwin/bin/Xaserver: Hangup

Well.. I killed then started inetd up again... and now I'm getting

Sep 11 15:17:37 worf inetd[14895]: fs/tcp: bind: Address already in use
every 10 minutes.....

Anything else I'm missing?? I'd rather not reboot... ( production system.. )
