Looking at the source code for SocketServer, you have to set
allow_reuse_address *before* instantiating the server, because the value
is used by the __init__() method. allow_reuse_address is actuall a class
attribute, not an instance attribute.
One way to do this is to set the class attribute directly:
SocketServer.TCPServer.allow_reuse_address = 1
This will change the behaviour of any TCPServer created after this
assignment. If you want to just change the one server you create, make
your own server subclass and set allow_reuse_address there:
class MyServer(SocketServer.TCPServer):
allow_reuse_address = True
then instantiate MyServer instead of TCPServer.
