problem of opening SSL socket on the 254th loop

Hello,
I open a SSL socket IO::Socket::SSL module, sending data, received
data, and then closed with the shutdown(2) function. Everything is ok
untill the loop number 254, that makes the script crash when opening
the new socket. The command 'netstat -a' gives the sockets "BOUND".
I am using solaris 2.6, perl 5.6.0, tcp connection.

thanks,
nicolas
