I get the following output from netstat ( a piece ) :
tcp 1 1 unicorn.niimm.spb.:smtp nic.funet.fi:3931 CLOSING
tcp 1 1 unicorn.niimm.spb.:smtp nic.funet.fi:2987 CLOSING
tcp 1 5785 unicorn.niimm.spb.:7500 star.niimm.spb.su:4369 CLOSING
tcp 1 98661 unicorn.niimm.spb.:7500 star.niimm.spb.su:4370 LAST_ACK
tcp 1 1 unicorn.niimm.spb.:smtp nic.funet.fi:4764 CLOSING

And this is holding for a couple of hours already. I believed, kernel should
close the sockets ( reset dead connections ). And 7500 port listener is
killed already, but kernel holds its sockets.

Kernel is 2.1.47

Bye.
