    Julo,
    
    Sorry to be dim, but can you please confirm that when a target
    receives a logout PDU with a reason code of 0 (closing the session) it
    should kill all of the connections associated with the session that
    receives the logout PDU (and kill the session as well).
    
    If that is true, the CID does not need to be specified when reason is 0.
    
    Also, the spec says "after logout the TCP connection must be closed at
    both ends". Please confirm that this means the TCP connection for the
    connection that was logged out is closed (which is not necessarily the
    same as the connection used to deliver the Logout request).
    
    Thanks,
    
    Mark
