ALE'ers -
I noticed from 'netstat' that some tcp ports were hung in 'CLOSE_WAIT'
state from file transfers which must have been at least a few days ago,
such as:
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State
[...]
tcp 1 0 :1078 helios.metalab.unc.:www CLOSE_WAIT
[...]
I don't notice any problems this might be causing, but I wondered if there
were some control I should set which would close out such ports after some
timeout period.
This is RH-6.1.
Comments? Thanks.
