Date: 26 Aug 1996 17:26:08 GMT Organization: inQuo Internet (801) 530-7160 Lines: 19 Distribution: world Message-ID: <4vsmng$kn5@NEWSnewsNeWsnEwS> NNTP-Posting-Host: inquo.net X-Newsreader: TIN [UNIX 1.3 950824BETA PL0] I'm running 2.2-960801-SNAP on a large news server, and I'm running into some unusual behaviour. Basically, I see that sometimes I can post news, and it posts almost immediately, other times it will wait forever, then time out. I notice on my "netstat" output that there are some 50 or so "ESTABLISHED" sessions, mostly coming from sites that feed me news. The weird thing is that these sites appear multiple times (to my nntp port), though I know that they only have a single session at any one time, and in fact, most of them (at the time I run netstat) aren't even connected. Is there a chance that sockets are getting "stuck" in the "ESTABLISHED" mode on this SNAP release? Does anyone have suggestions about what might be going on here? Thanks.
