Summary: iemnet: [tcpclient] opens more than one socket

Initial Comment:
It's currently possible to open more than one socket with [tcpclient], i.e. sending a 'connect' message for the second time without sending a prior 'disconnect' does not trigger an error. Also on the server side, a second socket is opened without the first one being closed. However, only data sent to the last opened socket will be printed by [tcpclient]. Data sent to the older sockets seem to cause traffic, but cannot be printed by [tcpclient].

I think, the way to fix this would be to disallow opening more than one socket. As soon as [tcpclient] is connected to a host, it should print an error, when sending another 'connect' message
