[New-bugs-announce] [issue10929] telnetlib does not send FIN when self.close() issued

[Joe Bennett]

New submission from Joe Bennett <jammer10000 at ka3nam.com>:

Hi, am running Python 2.6.5 on Unbuntu 10.04 and am seeing no FIN when a self.close() is issued... I do see a reset issued, but it looks like some of the M$ servers do not appreciate on a reset and would like a graceful teardown... I understand that an RST can be issued in the event the buffer may have data to send, I do not believe that is the case. If there is a way to verify that, please let me know...
