The above settings did some odd things to my existing connections but
I get the idea.  I think the values for some of those parameters are
expected in milliseconds, but I think you intended seconds.  I will
adjust them accordingly and experiment as needed.  Thanks for the
idea.

Too bad we don't have a command, though, that would do something like:

        inetadm shutdown tcp:5000

which would initiate a shutdown of tcp port 5000.  I know ... patches :)

Thanks again,
-Brian
