network, threads & reboot

 Hi all,
 I wrote a client/server application which runs on network
 and is using pthreads. It works on different architectures
 Digital Unix v3.2 and 2.0, SunOs 4.1.4 and Linux 1.2.13.
 On SunOs and Linux I'm using the pthreads library from Mit.

 Suppose a server is running on one of these architectures,
 if one of alphas which are running clients reboots or crashes
 the the client cannot connect to the server when the machines
 boots up. More exactly it connects but immediately the
 connection on the server side passes from the tcp state
 ESTABLISHED to CLOSE_WAIT and the client silently exits.

 However clients running on others architectures does not
 show this behavior and if the clients machine reboots then
 the connection is established again.

 So what I did wrongly??
 Any idea will be really appreciated.

 Thanks,...David
