[go-nuts] Listening on a port with TCP, trying to enable many connections

Hey guys, I don't know the term for this - thus it has been hard to
google.
I've got a server listening on a specific port, and the clients know that
port number - communication is through RPC (after the original connection)
I want to accept new connections on the original port, then move them to
another port so that the original port can continue listening.

How would one go about that? Whats the term for that?

Why can't it just continue serving the traffic on the same port? The
server should be able to continue accepting more clients after the first.

Perhapa its an issue with my understanding, I'll list my steps.

My server listens for a connection.
When a connection arrives (I believe) it blocks my listener. So :

l, err := net.listen("tcp", ipPort)
for{
conn, _ := l.Accept()
go roc.ServceConn(conn)
}
Seems to leave my port at ipPort 'blocked' I thought it's because of
server, but possibly its because of listen.

In most (maybe all?) tcp implementations the server does indeed assign a new port to the connection when it Accepts it. This way other clients may continue to connect using the same port, the functionality you want. Try printing out the local address information from the connection returned from Accept.
