Socket Handling Differences Between Linux & Unix?
Sorry if this is a stupid question!

I have been developing a Java application that I am deploying on both Unix and Linux servers, which uses lots of socket handling. When the server side connection is dropped by the server un-gracefully I have been seeing close_waits and null connections.

I am working through socket handling and fixing problems as I go, but my question is:

Do I need to re-test everything on both Linux and Unix, or is the socket handling identical between the 2? i.e. if I complete all testing on Linux, can I release the applicaion on Unix with 100% confidence that there are no underlying socket handling differences that could cause close_wait or null connection problems later?

Unix = HP-UX 11i
Linux = RH4

Thanks.
