:This is exactly what we're seeing, it's VERY strange. I did kill off :Apache, and all the FIN_WAIT_1's stuck around, so the kernel is in :fact sending these probe packets, every 60 seconds, which the client :responds to... (most of the time).
Ach. Now that I think about it, it is still possible for it to happen that way. Apache closed the connection while there was still data in the scoket buffer to the client. The client then refused to read it, but otherwise left the connection alive. It's got to a be a bug on the client(s) in question. I can't think of anything else. You may have to resort to injecting a TCP RST packet (e.g. via a TUN device) to clear the connections. -Matt _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
