Summary:
Connections to my machine that were cut off by my box losing it's ppp connection haven't timed out even after a few days.
My system:
fenris@ulfheim:~$ uname -a Linux ulfheim 2.1.14 #1 Sun Dec 1 16:51:28 PST 1996 i586
Network connection consists of a 28.8 PPP dialup to an ISP.
The problem:
fenris@ulfheim:~$ netstat -tn Active Internet connections (w/o servers) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State tcp 0 0 204.216.64.180:1491 204.174.247.55:1136 CLOSE tcp 0 0 204.216.64.180:1487 204.174.247.55:1134 CLOSE tcp 0 0 204.216.64.98:21 204.180.142.36:1338 FIN_WAIT2
Some of these connections are three or four days old, and still haven't timed out. Shouldn't they have, by now? And how can I clear them without resetting the machine, BTW? Mike Driscoll
